This driver allows userspace to read the raw efuse data.
The patchset uses an inexplicable mixture of "fuse" and "efuse".
Given that the kernel already has a "fuse", it would be nice if
this code could use "efuse" everywhere.
I didn't check every instance, but a mix of those two terms seems
reasonable. "fuse" is the type of HW object; it's a generic HW term that
exists outside the scope of this patch. While the conflict with Linux's
filesystem is unfortunate, it's a name collision that I think we'll
simply have to live with; it's not created by this patch. "efuse" is the
name of the Tegra module that hosts Tegra's fuses.
