That's not the point. If these functions are the same then of course
there is no need to have it duplicated, but just silently deleting
stuff in a (according to the changelog) unnrelated patch w/o fixing up
what breaks is not how it works.

You want others to review your changes, then please provide them in a
form which do not cause the reviewer to figure out that the function
in cafe.c is identical.

It would have been entirely clear when the patch series would have
contained:

[1/n] remove duplicated write_page function from cafe.c
[2/n] remove now unused write_page function pointer from struct nand_chip

I have only restricted time to do such reviews and I definitely have
no interest to investigate why the heck a change which is completely
unrelated might be correct or useful.

Thanks,
