Nice cleanups. I think I've pushed everything correctly to l2-mtd.git. Please verify that things look sane to you, if possible. There were a few v5's thrown in after the fact, as well as other cleanups that required apply-conflicts. I'll summarize below anything I remember that's changed since the cover letter, for posterity. > Changes since v3: > - fix some bugs introduced when migrating to nand_to_mtd() > - split the huge commit switching all drivers to nand_to_mtd() into several > commits (one per driver) to ease review and integration > - add a simple fixes/reworks at the beginning of the series (mainly to > ease migration to nand_to_mtd()) > - drop already applied patches. > > Changes since v2: > - fix some build warnings/erros > > Changes since v1: > - dropped already applied patches > - fixed some typos > - manually fixed some modifications omitted by the coccinelle scripts > - manually reworked modifactions done by coccinelle scripts to improve > readability and fix coding style issues > > *** BLURB HERE *** Nice blurb :) > > Boris Brezillon (58): > mtd: nand: denali: add missing nand_release() call in denali_remove() You sent v5 of this, and I added in the comment that was written/requested afterward.

You've essentially fixed the conflict in: [PATCH] mtd: nand: remove unused and buggy get_platform_nandchip() helper function http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2015-December/064409.html But really, that's a pretty big hack still... I don't care to fix it myself right now. Just whining :) > mtd: nand: make use of nand_set/get_controller_data() helpers > staging: mt29f_spinand: make use of nand_set/get_controller_data() > helpers [...] So, this has passed all my build tests and LGTM. Pushed patches 1 - 54 to l2-mtd.git!
