+config BCM47XX_NVRAM
+ bool "Broadcom NVRAM driver"
+ depends on BCM47XX || ARCH_BCM_5301X
+ help
+ Broadcom home routers contain flash partition called "nvram" with all
+ important hardware configuration as well as some minor user setup.
+ NVRAM partition contains a text-like data representing name=value
+ pairs.
+ This driver provides an easy way to get value of requested parameter.
+ It simply reads content of NVRAM and parses it. It doesn't control any
+ hardware part itself.
+
+config BCM47XX_SPROM
+ bool "Broadcom SPROM driver"
+ depends on BCM47XX_NVRAM
+ select GENERIC_NET_UTILS
+ help
+ Broadcom devices store configuration data in SPROM. Accessing it is
+ specific to the bus host type, e.g. PCI(e) devices have it mapped in
+ a PCI BAR.
+ In case of SoC devices SPROM content is stored on a flash used by
+ bootloader firmware CFE. This driver provides method to ssb and bcma
+ drivers to read SPROM on SoC.
