I could have written a coccinelle script, but every time I tried it
took me more time than using git grep + manual patching :-).

The thing is, if I do that for tegra, why not doing it for other
drivers, and then the patch becomes really hard to review. So yes, I'd
prefer to keep the changes as dumb as possible and let each maintainer
cleanup their driver (which basically means, stop passing mtd_info to
all internal functions, not only this one).

Boris
