  Here is a respin of the series, now with 8 patches.

Patch 1 removes the tst-x86_64-1 test, as requested, as this test
would fail after the following commits.

Patches 2-5 (formerly 1-4) implement the removal of legacy hwcaps
support itself; all of them are reviewed except for patch 3, which
missed updating a comment.

Patch 6 adds a NEWS entry for the removal of the legacy hwcaps
support.

Patches 7 and 8 are unreviewed, and I wonder if they are wanted.
I am myself unsure about patch 7, but the changes in patch 8 do
simplify the code somewhat.
