Log: Add deprecation notice for lmc(4) We intend to remove support before FreeBSD 12 is branched. These are available only as 32-bit PCI devices. The driver has an ambiguous license and I have not been successful in contacting the driver's author in order to address this. The planned deprecation has been announced on -current and -stable; if we receive feedback that the driver is still useful and we are able to resolve the license issue this deprecation notice can be reverted.
