The qoriq-efuse driver is a duplicate of layerscape-sfp.c. The T-series
uses TA 2.0, while Layerscape uses TA 2.1 or 3.0 (depending on the
chip). Add appropriate compatibles to the layerscape-sfp driver and
remove the qoriq-efuse driver. I did not add support for P-series SoCs,
since they use TA 1.0 which doesn't share a major version with either of
the existing implementations.

The qoriq-efuse driver does not properly abstract the location/offset of
the fuses properly, instead exposing the device's whole address range to
userspace. This is not appropriate, as the fuses only occupy a small
portion of this range. The layerscape-sfp module correctly constrains
the nvmem size to the fuses size. This represents a (necessary)
compatibility break. The qoriq-efuse driver has been in-tree for around
six months. Hopefully this will limit the fallout.

I would appreciate if someone with access to trust architecture 2.0 user
guide could confirm the number of fuses.

I don't think Fixes is appropriate here. Apart from that:
