The HAL driver is not used by any supported Linux, the only possible user could be FreeBSD, but the official libvirt port disables HAL driver unconditionally which means probably nobody is using it there.
Last time we asked, Roman said he at least tested HAL on FreeBSD to see if basics were working, so I think we want his agreement before deciding to remove this https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2016-April/msg00991.html

HAL was deprecated on FreeBSD as well and the current supported device manager is *devd*. If there will be need to implement node device support on FreeBSD we can add a new DEVD driver or we can use libudev-devd project to support UDEV driver on FreeBSD.
