The NVMEM_BRCM_NVRAM driver won't work properly with NVRAM in NAND. It

Until the driver is fixed, disable it.

Driver works and it useful for non-NAND devices. By disabling it you
regress those devices. Surely this can be handled better.

How about making a subtarget for NAND devices? The kernel config will be separate so we can disable NVMEM for that subtarget.

You mentioned contacting Broadcom regarding this issue around 6 months ago. Any news on that?



Disable NVMEM too as the bgmac_bcma driver will hang trying to retrieve the
MAC address without NVMEM_BRCM_NVRAM enabled.

This would be nice to fix instead hiding the bug.

I've got no interest to learn the NVMEM subsystem to take a crack at fixing it at the moment. For now, the best I can do is send a separate mail to openwrt-devel as a mean to report this bug.
