Actually, let's merge this via the l2-mtd.git tree. Brian, what do you
think about this patch? It looks good for me in general, but I did not
review it line-by-line. The only thing is that the 'modinfo nandsim' may
look confusing for the user, who sees so many ID-related parameters, so
I'd add an "(obsolete)" marker to the string describing the old
parameters. But this is a minor thing, I did not want to ask Akinobu
about this because the patch was already waiting for very long time, I'd
do this myself while merging.

Artem.
