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
Author: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

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
