Overall I like this.

However I don't want to see any transitional phase. I prefer a BIG
fat patch converting everyone and its dog to the new vtable and
removing the old function pointers. This can be based on the HEAD
of my GPIO devel branch.

It may be a good idea to use coccinelle for this refactoring in order
not to miss any users.
