There's no need to retain the fs/autofs4 directory for backward
compatibility.

Adding an AUTOFS4_FS fragment to the autofs Kconfig and a module alias
for autofs4 is sufficient for almost all cases. Not keeping fs/autofs4
remnants will prevent "insmod &lt;path&gt;/autofs4/autofs4.ko" from working
but this shouldn't be used in automation scripts rather than
modprobe(8).

There were some comments about things to look out for with the module
rename in the fs/autofs4/Kconfig that is removed by this patch, see the
commit patch if you are interested.

One potential problem with this change is that when the
fs/autofs/Kconfig fragment for AUTOFS4_FS is removed any AUTOFS4_FS
entries will be removed from the kernel config, resulting in no autofs
file system being built if there is no AUTOFS_FS entry also.

This would have also happened if the fs/autofs4 remnants had remained
and is most likely to be a problem with automated builds.

Please check your build configurations before the removal which will
occur after the next couple of kernel releases.

<title>autofs: comment on selinux changes needed for module autoload</title>

<id>urn:sha1:8240b716e200b3da215ea5a22a49f76f2c846a78</id>
<content type='text'>
Due to the autofs4 module using a file system type name of autofs
different from the module containing directory name autoload did not
function properly.  To work around this kernel configurations have often
elected to build the module into the kernel.

This can result in selinux policies that prohibit autoloading of the
autofs module which need to be changed.

Add a comment about this to "possible changes" section of the autofs4
module help.

URLs to ftp.kernel.org are still exist though the service is closed [0].
This commit fixes the URLs to use www.kernel.org instead.
