Comment (by boonebgorges):

 In [changeset:"42372"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="42372"
 `category_description()` should be taxonomy-agnostic.

 This change reinstates the previous de facto behavior of
 `category_description()`.
 See [40979], [42364]. Because `term_description()` no longer passes
 `$taxonomy` to
 `get_term_field()`, the parameter is no longer needed and has been
 deprecated.

 Merges [42368] to the 4.9 branch.

 Fixes #42605. See #42771.
