[PATCH v2] doc: nvmem: Remove references to regmap

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Since commit 795ddd18d38f ("nvmem: core: remove regmap dependency"),
nvmem devices do not use the regmap API. Remove references to it from
the documentation. Additionally, update the example to reflect the new
API.  I have chosen the brcm-nvram driver since it seems to be simpler
than the qfprom driver.
