Sorry Alec,  I should had made it clear when I closed this that I was just removing some old cruft. These changes were released orignally in DAHDI-Linux 2.5...

The final commit of the series that removed it was http://git.asterisk.org/gitweb/?p=dahdi/linux.git;a=commit;h=579ea560efd7a82ac34ca211571ad426fff86c0d

Reduced locking?) this could be part of a solution to allow more channels on a single system without recompiling.
