I've discovered following discrepancy in the bindings/net/ethernet.txt documentation, where it states following: - nvmem-cells: phandle, reference to an nvmem node for the MAC address; - nvmem-cell-names: string, should be "mac-address" if nvmem is to be.. which is actually misleading and confusing. There are only two ethernet drivers in the tree, cadence/macb and davinci which supports this properties. This nvmem-cell* properties were introduced in commit 9217e566bdee ("of_net: Implement of_get_nvmem_mac_address helper"), but commit afa64a72b862 ("of: net: kill of_get_nvmem_mac_address()") forget to properly clean up this parts. So this patch fixes the documentation by moving the nvmem-cell* properties at the appropriate places. While at it, I've removed unused include as well.

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.
