Description
The [edit_post](https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/4.5.3/src/wp-includes/post.php#L3491) hook is redundant and I do not see any benefit over post_updated, which is called immediately after and provides more data.

I don't really see any benefit from deprecating the filter, even if it is now redundant and those who are using it aren't facing any immediate compatibility issues by using it.
post_updatedwas probably added for consistency with other actions, it doesn't necessarily have to replace the existing hook.
