This is the commit and rationale:

commit bd8d9559bf8e6cdbf080902bc2460dbc12848054
Author: Andrew Bartlett <abartlet at samba.org>
Date:   Tue Jan 3 20:46:59 2017 +1300

    param: Remove winbindd privileged socket directory option
    
    This option is unused and has not been used since before Samba 4.3
    when the source4/ winbindd code went away.
    
    The associated dynconfig parameters used for the default are also
removed.
    
    BUG: https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10066
