Subject: [RFC] Clean up ppc64 nvram code
Date: Mon,  2 Aug 2010 10:55:11 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1280710522-6362-1-git-send-email-benh@kernel.crashing.org> (raw)

This series is a first go at cleaning up some cruft in nvram_64.c for
handling nvram partitions. The current ppc64,linux partition is really
pseries specific, so we change the code for finding/creating it gets
turned into a more generic API for manipulating nvram partitions, and
the specifics to that partition are moved to pseries. We also rename
it to better represent what it's for
