Hm.. I'm not sure I agree here. I like this patch and I like the effect
it has on nand_scan_tail().

On a personal note, I hardly ever use git blame at all (because it's dead
slow). Instead, I just run git log ${file} and get the latest changes on
that file.

So, for what it's worth, I think it should be merged.
