+Date: June 2024
+KernelVersion: 6.11
+Contact: Marek Vasut <marex@denx.de>
+Description:
+ This read/write attribute allows users to set read-write
+ devices as read-only and back to read-write from userspace.
+ This can be used to unlock and relock write-protection of
+ devices which are generally locked, except during sporadic
+ programming operation.
+ Read returns '0' or '1' for read-write or read-only modes
+ respectively.
+ Write parses one of 'YyTt1NnFf0', or [oO][NnFf] for "on"
+ and "off", i.e. what kstrtobool() supports.
+ Note: This file is only present if CONFIG_NVMEM_SYSFS
+ is enabled.
