The idea behind this param is to support OpenCL drivers with relocations because OpenCL reserves 0x0 for NULL and, if we placed memory there, it would confuse CL kernels. It was originally sent out as part of a patch series including libdrm [1] and Beignet [2] support. However, the libdrm and Beignet patches never landed in their respective upstream projects so this API has never been used. It's never been used in Mesa or any other driver, either. Dropping this API allows us to delete a small bit of code.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
