If someone can review this patch - good let's see how many Reviewed-by
tags we get. But I think it is not very reviewable because of the size.

AFAICK, what you do here is

1. Introduce new structure struct pxa3xx_nand_host
2. Move several fields from struct pxa3xx_nand_info to struct
pxa3xx_nand_host

And only this alone adds a lot of noise to the patch.

And also you have some real functional changes.

So I'd suggest you to split this patch at least on 2 - the first one
would introduce struct pxa3xx_nand_host, moved some fields, and do all
the host<->info renamings. You can split this on several steps and move
only several fields at a time.

Then a separate patch would do some more functional changes. How does
this sound?
