If it is not too late, I am not a big fan of the new naming which is
rather not descriptive. Files in the onenand subdirectory are:
* onenand_<something>.c for the base files
* <vendor>.c for the vendors files (currently: omap2.c and samsung.c).

What about doing the MTD changes in a single patch and renaming both
vendor drivers (for the same reason): onenand_omap2.c and
onenand_samsung.c? I know it makes git blaming more difficult though.

Thanks,
Miquèl
