It could be.

I thought that out policy towards unused functions were to remove them.
Could you
point me to the description of such policy?
I'm not aware of it.
We did so in commit 2b94ab415b30861f42b68725d9231905baf8c3bd
I
didn't notice that patch. I'm sorry I do not have a time
to follow each patchset.
We can always resurrect removed code if needed.
If we consider confdb as library than
we should never remove functions.
Removing functions from other parts of code is something
else.
