Thanks, so if I parse those 2 use cases of nvmem_get_mac_address correctly:

 drivers/net/ethernet/cadence/macb_main.c:  err = nvmem_get_mac_address(&pdev->dev, bp->dev->dev_addr);
 drivers/net/ethernet/ti/davinci_emac.c:    rc = nvmem_get_mac_address(&pdev->dev, priv->mac_addr);

We would need to spill `nvmem_get_mac_address` into every single driver on
earth (as it's done now in those two drivers I've mentioned above) which would
like to use MAC address stored in NVME or wire `nvmem_get_mac_address` into
`of_get_mac_address`, right?
