Oh, INADA-san found an issue of this function: Mercurial. I close this issue and I closed my PR. We can reconsider to deprecate the function once Mercurial will stop to use it.

Copy of INADA-san message:

"""
I think we should keep this several years.

Currently, mercurial depends on it.
https://www.mercurial-scm.org/repo/hg/file/tip/mercurial/pycompat.py#l103

There is a plan for moving to UTF-8 path, and legacyfsencoding is not needed if this plan is implemented. But I don't know about current progress of this plan.
