From ae0c2d725512f32a0d1a25f0cf2f07616d33a72e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Srinivas Kandagatla Date: Tue, 16 Apr 2019 10:59:24 +0100 Subject: nvmem: core: add NVMEM_SYSFS Kconfig Many nvmem providers are not very keen on having default sysfs nvmem entry, as most of the usecases for them are inside kernel itself. And in some cases read/writes to some areas in nvmem are restricted and trapped at secure monitor level, so accessing them from userspace would result in board reboots. This patch adds new NVMEM_SYSFS Kconfig to make binary sysfs entry an optional one. This provision will give more flexibility to users. This patch also moves existing sysfs code to a new file so that its not compiled in when its not really required.
