How much deprecated?

The PF_NKE protocol has been deprecated. It was actually implemented
in an NKE manager kext. The recommended way of communicating between
user space and a kext is to use a PF_SYSTEM socket with the protocol
"SYSPROTO_CONTROL". See sys/kern_control.h for more inform
Could it be possible to have a clear and official statement on this?
Because I just don't understand what the official recommendation is.
* In NKE.PDF, AFAIK, the tcplogger sample code is making use of PF_NKE
in its userland part. And this is said to be the deprecated part. So
the only available documentation is no more correct.
* In sys/kern_control.h, the whole API is bracketed by a #ifdef
__APPLE_API_UNSTABLE. And this is the suggested solution. And there is
no documentation on it or sample code.
