I found two problematic sections in the document.
1. The section "Choices" (line 694 -- 741) in math-spacing.tex describes
the removed \setdisplaymathspacemodel command.
2. The section "Script kerning" (line 127 -- 203) in math-features.tex
descibes the \mathscriptboxmode primitive which was removed in Luametatex.
