[PATCH v1 1/7] nvmem: Add 'protect' operation to core framework
Oleksij Rempel

Fri May 30 04:41:00 PDT 2025
Introduce a generic "protect" operation to the NVMEM framework.
This allows NVMEM providers to expose hardware-specific protection or
locking mechanisms through the character device interface. Existing
read/write operations do not cover this type of state-altering
protection.
