This is not generic code, of course. Please refer to the two patches that 
follow this one, in which all of the x86-specific code gets wrapped with 
#ifdef CONFIG_X86.

This code gets moved because the MACH macro is made redundant. You might 
defer this code motion to patch 4 or patch 5 but I don't see that as being 
an improvement.

You may want to take a look at the final generic implementation of 
drivers/char/nvram.c, which can be seen here: 
https://github.com/fthain/linux/blob/0949c1b7bd8b9d0034e77601a9af73c712d26d4a/drivers/char/nvram.c

You may also find it helpful to look at this whole series in the form of a 
single diff, to reveal the effect on this file. I think you'll agree that 
the overall effect on this file is a dramatic improvement.

You may argue that there should be no CONFIG_X86 code in drivers/char. 
Sure, that would be nice. However, if you grep for CMOS_READ|CMOS_WRITE 
you'll see that the problem is much bigger than drivers/char/nvram.c.
Perhaps the next best place for the x86-specific code here is 
drivers/rtc/rtc-cmos.c where you can already find #ifdef CONFIG_X86. 

Anyway, I consider the CMOS_READ|CMOS_WRITE issue to be out-of-scope, 
though hopefully this patch series does untangle it a little.
