I've sent this (+ the introduction of mtd_to_nand()) in a pull request
to arm-soc, as well as to l2-mtd.git.

I've based these on v4.4-rc1 and brought them into l2-mtd.git, in case
any arch/{blackfin,cris,mips}/ people want to pull them in too.

Pulled the rest up to here into l2-mtd.git.

I believe Julia had comments on this. That probably would go through the
kbuild tree in the end anyway (?).

There's still at least one problem in this patch (commented on the
patch). It touches a lot of drivers, so any extra review would be great.

All the rest look good to me. I'll wait until I get a good copy of patch
12 before taking them.
