Hi Mike
Probably not. But any driver which needs to work with both ACPI and OF
is likely to use this API. So server class ARM64 chips for example.

It's common practice to store MAC addresses for network interfaces into
nvmem devices. However the code to actually do this in the kernel lacks,
so this patch adds of_get_nvmem_mac_address() for drivers to obtain the
address from an nvmem cell provider.
This is particulary useful on devices where
