In general I tend to like detailed patch logs as much as you do. But in
this case Hans is doing almost all the work by himself and it is very
needed, and the faster completed, the better. So I am really to trade
log details for a faster conversion.

No, sorry if I didn't make it clear, but that wasn't my point. My point
was only about the change in i2c binding model. This change clearly
results in a net shrink as far as lines of code are concerned.

This doesn't have much to do with the v4l2_subdev conversion Hans is
doing in parallel (other than the fact that the former may make the
later easier, but I'm not even sure.)
