This seems uncontroversial, so I'll take it via powerpc for 4.1.

In future please include the details on how/why it's unused in the changelog.

Geert did the digging for you:

  Removal seems to be forgotten by full-history-linux
  commit 17c6f4635bea74e110ab3558d408c9cd218c568a

      ppc32: Rework nvram management
  
      move drivers/macintosh/nvram.c to drivers/char/generic_nvram.c,
      update platform hooks,
      fix powermac nvram driver for newer machines


I'll fold that into the changelog.

cheers
