No major issue with the series other than the change to the generic nvram code which needs to not break other architectures :-) Also, it will probably need to go through Andrew Morton, unless there's a maintainer for that driver, is there ? Once you sort out that aspect of the patch series, I'm happy to take the rest in powerpc.git Cheers, Ben.
