[PATCH v2 0/2] nvmem: rmem: Make reserved region name unique

From: Ivan T. Ivanov
Date: Thu Apr 13 2023 - 04:53:43 EST


They could be multiple reserved memory regions,
so let's make their names unique.

This fixes following kernel error:

Changes since v1

I dig into Raspberry Github repository and found original patches
from Tim and Phil which add new region and fix rmem driver.

Patch 1 - use NVMEM_DEVID_AUTO instead making region name unique from
the driver itself.

Patch 2 - New one.

Phil Elwell (1):
nvmem: rmem: Use NVMEM_DEVID_AUTO

Tim Gover (1):
ARM: dts: Add nvmem node for BCM2711 bootloader public key
