Subject: [PATCH v8 05/25] char/nvram: Adopt arch_nvram_ops

Different platforms and architectures offer different NVRAM sizes and
access methods. E.g. PPC32 has byte-at-a-time accessor functions whereas
PPC64 has byte-range accessor functions. Adopt the nvram_ops struct so
the nvram module can call such functions as are defined by the various
platforms and architectures.

Signed-off-by: Finn Thain <fthain@...egraphics.com.au>

The procfs code here could be moved to arch/x86 (like the earlier patch
did for m68k code that was here). The nvram_ops struct could be
implemented and exported by the rtc-cmos driver instead, to eliminate
the remaining #ifdefs.
