I see a much earlier patch that is nearly identical, but whose
whitespace is a little cleaner:

http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/381347/

I don't know why it was never ack'd or merged. I think I'll take it now.

Is there anyone who wants to step and have a MAINTAINERS entry on this?
I don't have hardware or anything, so it'd be great if someone who works
on these things can ack changes for davinci_nand.c.

Thanks,
Brian
