Tapebufs is one of those rarely-tweaked parameters, but has been
replaced by device-output-buffer-size.

Rawtapedev is no longer required -- just use tapedev.

The third deprecated keyword, at the moment, is file-pad.  As I
recall, this parameter never actually did much.  All devices may now
pad their output to a block boundary.

It's probably a good idea to add something to the wiki about this --
either a troubleshooting article (something like "Keyword .. is
deprecated") or just a top-level article ("Deprecated configuration
keywords").

Do you mind adding such a thing?
