+Subject: [PATCH] fw_env: add fallback to Linux's NVMEM based access
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+A new DT binding for describing environment data block has been added in
+Linux's commit 5db1c2dbc04c ("dt-bindings: nvmem: add U-Boot environment
+variables binding"). Once we get a proper Linux NVMEM driver it'll be
+possible to use Linux's binary interface for user-space as documented
+in the:
+https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/driver-api/nvmem.html
+
+This commits makes fw_env fallback to looking for a compatible NVMEM
+device in case config file isn't present. In a long term this may make
+config files redundant and avoid code (info) duplication.
