Not true. We can (and should) replace it with the new one in
GENERIC, but it can be left to rot for a while in LINT. The point is
having the driver in -current until the last release of RELENG_3, so
that changes (such as the one you vetoed for your new driver) can be
changed.

When RELENG_3 is dead, we can remove it from RELENG_4.
