That said, as has been pointed out, the current #ifdef has a failing

IS_REACHABLE(CONFIG_NVRAM).


No, in the case of CONFIG_NVRAM=m, the conditional code is deliberately 
excluded. This is discussed in the patch description. The convention on 
PPC32 is that device drivers drop support for NVRAM in this situation. 

I've adopted the PPC32 convention here because M68K drivers and PPC32 
drivers have to co-exist (I'm thinking of valkyriefb, but there are other 
examples).
