Merge branch 'davinci_emac-read-the-MAC-address-from-nvmem'
Bartosz Golaszewski says: ==================== davinci_emac: read the MAC address from nvmem This series is part of a bigger series that aims at removing the platform data structure from the at24 EEPROM driver[1]. We provide a generalized version of of_get_nvmem_mac_address(), switch the only user of the of_ variant to using it, remove the previous implementation and use the new routine in the davinci_emac driver.
