[patch 2/5] macintosh: Remove BKL from nvram driver

[patch 2/5] macintosh: Remove BKL from nvram driver

[Thomas Gleixner]

Drop the bkl from nvram_llseek() as it obviously protects nothing. The
file offset is safe in essence.

The ioctl can be converted to unlocked_ioctl because it just calls
pmac_get_partition() which reads a value from an array which was
initialized at early boot time. No need for serialization.
