[PATCH 0/6] Convert existing EEPROM drivers to NVMEM

[Andrew Lunn]

This patches converts the old EEPROM drivers in driver/misc/eeprom to
use the NVMEM framework. These drivers export there content in /sys as
read only to root, since the EEPROM may contain sensitive information.
So the first patch adds a flag so the NVMEM framework will create its
file in /sys as root read only.

To keep backwards compatibility with these older drivers, the contents
of the EEPROM must be exports in sysfs in a file called eeprom in the
devices node in sys, where as the NVMEM places them under class/nvmem.
So add this optional backwards compatible to the framework.

Then convert the at24, at25 and 93xx46 by adding regmap support,
removing each drivers own /sys code and registering with the NVMEM
framework.

AT24 and 93xx46 has been boot tested, at25 compile tested only.

Andrew Lunn (6):
  nvmem: Add flag to export NVMEM to root only
  nvmem: Add backwards compatibility support for older EEPROM drivers.
  eeprom: at24: extend driver to plug into the NVMEM framework
  eeprom: at25: Remove in kernel API for accessing the EEPROM
  eeprom: at25: extend driver to plug into the NVMEM framework
  eeprom: 93xx46: extend driver to plug into the NVMEM framework
