[PATCH 00/27] mtd: nand: refactor the NAND subsystem (part 1)

[Boris Brezillon]

Hello,

This huge series aims at clarifying the relationship between the mtd and
nand_chip structures and hiding NAND framework internals to NAND
controller drivers.

The first part of the series provide an mtd_to_nand() helper to hide the
way mtd and nand_chip are linked together.

The second part of the series embeds the mtd structure into the nand_chip
one so that NAND controller drivers don't have to bother allocating the
MTD device and linking it with the NAND chip.

The last part of the series hides accesses to the chip->priv field behind
two helper functions.

This allows removal of some of the boilerplate code done in all NAND
controller drivers, but most importantly, it unifies a bit the way NAND
chip structures are instantiated (even though we still have two different
kinds of drivers: those embedding the nand_chip struct into their private
nand chip representation, and those allocating two different structures
and linking them together with the chip->priv field).

As said in the title, this refactoring is only the first step. I plan to
rework the NAND controller / NAND chip separation for pretty much the same
reasons: clarifying the separation between the two concepts, and getting
rid of more boilerplate code in NAND controller drivers.

Stay tuned ;-).

Best Regards,

Boris
