[PATCH 0/6] Expose RPi4'd bootloader configuration

Soon to be released versions of RPi4's firmware will take of care
passing their bootloader's configuration to the OS by copying it into
memory and creating a reserved memory node in the board's DT. In order
to make use of this information, this series introduces a new generic
nvmem driver that maps reserved-memory nodes into nvmem devices.

An alternative approach, less nice IMO, would be to create a
platform-specific 'soc' driver.

Regards,
Nicolas
