Since the operations are almost entirely distinct, why not have two
separate 'nvram_ops' instances here that each refer to just
the set they actually need?

I was actually expecting one more patch here that would make the
arch_nvram_ops a pointer to one of multiple structures, which would
be easier to do with multiple copies, but I suppose there is no need
for that here (there might be on ppc, I have to look again).
