I guess these will be 5.8 now.

I don't think it is necessary to create a second copy of the table entry, when
it is already available at cdev->cbmem_entry. You could do:

dev_set_drvdata(dev, cdev);

and that removes the need for struct cb_priv.

Otherwise,

I hacked nvramtool to pull the CMOS layout from
/sys/bus/coreboot/devices/coreboot0/attributes/data, and that seemed to work.
