No complaints to remove if it ended up unused outside IGT. Latter is a
_big_ problem though, since it is much more that a few IGT tests. So I
really think there really needs to be an evaluation and a plan for that
(we don't want to lose 50% of the coverage over night).

Not really true timelines are i915 implementation detail. They are in
fact a dma-fence context:seqno concept, nothing more that than. I think
you are probably confusing struct intel_timeline with the timeline
wording in the uapi. Former is i915 implementation detail, but
context:seqno are truly userspace timelines.
But again, no objection to removing unused uapi in principle. Narrative
has to be accurate and test coverage not lost though.
