I'm going to drop this from my review queue as I do not see the need to
do this type of conversion at this point in time.  Perhaps if "real"
drivers in the kernel get converted over to this new api we should also
do it here, but for now, there's much more "real" issues with the
greybus drivers that should be done that is keeping them from being
merged into the main part of the kernel tree, that the churn here is not
necessary at this point in time (especially if you have not tested
this.)
