I see some of this code is removed in first patch and added back here, I 
dont really see a value in doing this in a single series of patchset.

I would recommend "[PATCH v2 01/16] nvmem: remove unused APIs" and this 
patch to be merged.

This should go in nvmem-consumer.h, I don't think we should add header 
files for each usecase. These are nvmem consumers so lets put them in 
correct header file.
