Remove the reliance on a staticly defined NVRAM size, allowing platforms to
support NVRAMs with sizes differing from the standard. A fall back value is
provided for platforms not supporting this extension.

Ben: Is this a suitable solution?
v2: rename nvram_size() to nvram_get_size(), thus avoiding the collision with
the global
variables in arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/nvram.c and
arch/powerpc/platforms/chrp/nvram.c of the same name.
