CallSite relinking

I am at the point where I need to plan for the insitu replacement of 
methods.  For this I need to relink the call sites
which reference the selector of the method being replaced.   Looking over 
the latest api I don't see the old methods
which one could use to force a callsite to an unlinked state. 

Is the approach now to use setTarget to return the callsite to its 
original post bootstrap state? Since to do this I 
need to know the original boostrap method and parameters, and I see no api 
to get them, I assume that I need
to keep them as part of my call site implementation.

Am I heading the right way?

regards
mark
