Removing the perfmon(4) driver

While looking at something else today I noticed that we have a perfmon(4) 
driver which is an old driver that provided early support for the performance 
counters on the Pentium and Pentium Pro.  At this point it seems to be 
superseded by hwpmc(4).  Are there any objections to removing perform(4)?
