+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.
