[PATCH v4 3/8] powerpc/pseries: Introduce generic read function toread nvram-partitions

From: Aruna Balakrishnaiah
Date: Wed Jun 05 2013 - 14:51:40 EST


Introduce generic read function to read nvram partitions other than rtas.
nvram_read_error_log will be retained which is used to read rtas partition
from rtasd. nvram_read_partition is the generic read function to read from
any nvram partition.
