Add a new property to link the nvmem driver to the secure-monitor. The
nvmem driver needs to access the secure-monitor to be able to access the
fuses.

With your review/ack, I'll take this through with the driver changes.

Thanks,

I guess I acked this a while back, but I'm not sure I would today. It 
seems incomplete and a node with only a compatible string and no 
resources doesn't need to be in DT. But that's already done...

There's no need for 'secure-monitor' anyways. Just do 
'of_find_compatible_node(NULL, NULL, "amlogic,meson-gxbb-sm")' or search 
for the driver directly. It's not like there's more than one secure 
monitor...

How is hardcoding the secure-monitor directly into the efuse driver 
better than having it referenced in the DT?

Yes, there is one single secure monitor but (even if this is not 
currently the case) several drivers can use it making the secure-monitor 
a resource to be potentially used by several devices.

It does have ressources (the shared memory) but the mistake (we should maybe think about
fixing) is not expressing these in DT

I think the shared memory is already in our DT, maybe the secure monitor
should get a phandle to it ?

IMO the two methods show different constraints:
- Carlo's proposition show that the efuse driver need a ressource, which
is *a* secure monitor, whatever the variant is.

- Your proposition shows that the efuse driver depends on a particular
  secure monitor variant, which is the one provided by
  "amlogic,meson-gxbb-sm"

Yes, we could make your proposition work by the keeping the
"amlogic,meson-gxbb-sm" last in the compatible list but it isn't great
if a newer variant is actually not compatible with it.

Carlo represent the HW the way it is. It seems more flexible to me,
without adding (unbearable) complexity
