[PATCH linux-next (v3) 1/3] MIPS: bcm963xx: Add Broadcom BCM963xx board nvram data structure

Broadcom BCM963xx boards have multiple nvram variants across different
SoCs with additional checksum fields added whenever the size of the
nvram was extended.

Add this structure as a header file so that multiple drivers and userspace
can use it.

v3: Fix includes/type names, add comments explaining the nvram struct.

v2: Use external struct bcm963xx_nvram definition for bcm963268part.

+ * The nvram structure varies in size depending on the SoC board version. Use
+ * the appropriate minimum BCM963XX_NVRAM_*_SIZE define for the information
+ * you need instead of sizeof(struct bcm963xx_nvram) as this may change.
+ *
+ * The "version" field value maps directly to the size and checksum names, e.g.
+ * version 4 uses "checksum_v4" and the data is BCM963XX_NVRAM_V4_SIZE bytes.
+ *
+ * Do not use the __reserved fields, especially not as an offset for CRC
+ * calculations (use BCM963XX_NVRAM_*_SIZE instead). These may be removed or
+ * repositioned.
