I start to understand the problem, and I'm currently wondering why
powerpc uses CONFIG_NVRAM although the code CONFIG_NVRAM enables on
other platforms is not enabled on powerpc.
Can we rename it and move drivers/char/generic_nvram.c under
arch/powerpc/ ?
Can some powerpc person bring some background what's going on and why
it's this way?
