Probably something like the following would be easiest.  You can just run
it after your other transformations:

@r exists@
identifier f;
expression e;
@@

f(...) { <+...  nand_to_mtd(e) ...+> }

@@
identifier r.f;
expression r.e;
@@

f(...) {
+ struct mtd_info *mtd = nand_to_mtd(e);
...
}

This won't work if there is more than one possible value of e.  If that is
likely, then I could come up with something more complex.  It also assumes
that you want to convert all such calls.  If you only want to convert calls
that occur in a particular context, eg a field reference, then you could
enhance the pattern inside the <+... ...+> in the first rule.
