I think I now remember why this x86-specific code doesn't get moved from
drivers/char to arch/x86 in this patch series.
In the case of PPC32 and PPC64, the nvram accessors are presently built-in
using rules like this,
arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac/Makefile:obj-$(CONFIG_PPC64) += nvram.o
arch/powerpc/platforms/powernv/Makefile:obj-y += ... opal-nvram.o ...
arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/Makefile:obj-y := ... nvram.o ...
... or like this,
arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac/Makefile:obj-$(CONFIG_NVRAM:m=y) += nvram.o
... except in one case they are in a separate module, though this doesn't
work for built-in callers such as chrp_init2(),
arch/powerpc/platforms/chrp/Makefile:obj-$(CONFIG_NVRAM) += nvram.o
Anyway, I didn't think that any of these options would make it past the
x86 maintainers so I just left the x86-specific code in place.
