attempt trickery, we can simply rename the accessor functions.
Patch created with the help of Coccinelle.

Right now we perform direct pointer manipulation without any abstraction
to read from and write to memory mapped flash chips. That makes it
impossible to drive any flasher which does not mmap the whole chip.
Using helper functions readb() and writeb() allows a driver for external
flash programmers like Paraflasher to replace readb and writeb with
calls to its own chip access routines.
This patch has the additional advantage of removing lots of unnecessary
casts to volatile uint8_t * and now-superfluous parentheses which caused
poor readability.
I used the semantic patcher Coccinelle to create this patch. The
semantic patch follows:
@@
expression a;
typedef uint8_t;
volatile uint8_t *b;
@@
- *(b) = (a);
+ writeb(a, b);
@@
volatile uint8_t *b;
@@
- *(b)
+ readb(b)
@@
type T;
T b;
@@
(
readb
|
writeb
)
(...,
- (T)
- (b)
+ b
)
In contrast to a sed script, the semantic patch performs type checking
before converting anything.
