Thank you for cleaning actively this driver. I think you are comfortable
enough now to switch to start the migration to ->exec_op().

I will take this patch as I think it shrinks a bit the driver (which is
inordinately huge) but I would like to get rid of any kind of hackish
->cmdfunc() implementation. Boris and I can help you doing that, you
can grep for drivers already converted and observe they structure
(marvell, fsmc, vf610).
