Hi Arnd

It probably wouldn't be very difficult to also include 
arch/arm/plat-mxc/include/mach/ipu.h in this your patch, but you can also 
leave it for later. Just to make sure it's not something that would make 
your future patching more complicated.
For now, I've done only the straight renames but left the ones that looked
like they need more complex changes of any sort. Looking at ipu.h, it seems
that this header file defines data that is used inside of the driver but not
in the platform device definition, so we'd need to split it up and move
the part that is only used inside of the driver into a different place.

Of course, I could alo be mistaken and not have realized that actually all
of this file is platform data.
ipu.h is used by the dmaengine and IRQ driver under drivers/dma/ipu/, and 
by its users drivers/media/platform/soc_camera/mx3_camera.c and 
drivers/video/mx3fb.c. It has been placed under arch/arm/... because it's 
arch-specific, but in principle I don't see any reason why it cannot 
happily live anywhere under include/...

Thanks
Guennadi
