Subject[PATCH] char: nvram: disable on ARM
Date
/dev/nvram was never meant to be used alongside the RTC CMOS driver from
drivers/rtc as it already expose the NVRAM through another interface..
Anyway, the last defconfig to enable it properly was removed in 2010 so
prevent ARM users from selecting it.

If you say Y here and create a character special file /dev/nvram
with major number 10 and minor number 144 using mknod ("man mknod"),
