Hi Ahmad,

The nvmem cell binding used to apply to all objects which match
"^.*@[0-9a-f]+$", without taking a compatible into account, which
precluded extension of EEPROMs by child nodes other than nvmem.

A previous commit changed the binding, so that nvmem cells that
feature a compatible property must have "nvmem-cell" as the value,
otherwise they are skipped.

Adjust the driver to observe the new binding change. This change
does not change behavior for any device tree that was already
compliant with the nvmem binding.
