They add NVMEM layouts support. It allows handling NVMEM content independently of NVMEM device access. Skip U-Boot env data patch for now as it break our downstream MAC hacks. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>

Subject: [PATCH] nvmem: core: request layout modules loading
|
|
|
|
When a storage device like an eeprom or an mtd device probes, it
|
|
registers an nvmem device if the nvmem subsystem has been enabled (bool
|
|
symbol). During nvmem registration, if the device is using layouts to
|
|
expose dynamic nvmem cells, the core will first try to get a reference
|
|
over the layout driver callbacks. In practice there is not relationship
|
|
that can be described between the storage driver and the nvmem
|
|
layout. So there is no way we can enforce both drivers will be built-in
|
|
or both will be modules. If the storage device driver is built-in but
|
|
the layout is built as a module, instead of badly failing with an
|
|
endless probe deferral loop, lets just make a modprobe call in case the
|
|
driver was made available in an initramfs with
|
|
of_device_node_request_module(), and offer a fully functional system to
|
|
the user.
