Many nvmem providers are not very keen on having default sysfs nvmem entry, as most of the usecases for them are inside kernel itself. And in some cases read/writes to some areas in nvmem are restricted and trapped at secure monitor level, so accessing them from userspace would result in board reboots. This patch adds new NVMEM_SYSFS Kconfig to make binary sysfs entry an optional one. This provision will give more flexibility to users. This patch also moves existing sysfs code to a new file so that its not compiled in when its not really required.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
