   \item \emph{Out of tree}, when the code is outside of the kernel
     source tree, in a different directory
     \begin{itemize}
-    \item Advantage: Might be easier to handle than modifications to
-      the kernel itself
     \item Drawbacks: Not integrated to the kernel
       configuration/compilation process, needs to be built
       separately, the driver cannot be built statically
