[PATCH 3/3] nvmem: core: nvmem_cell_read() should return the true size

[Douglas Anderson]

If we look at the gpu speed bin currently in sc7180.dtsi:
  gpu_speed_bin: gpu_speed_bin@1d2 {
    reg = <0x1d2 0x2>;
    bits = <5 8>;
  };

We can see that this is an 8-bit value.  However we had to specify the
"reg" as 16 bits because the value was spread out over two bytes.

It doesn't make sense to expose the fact that the value was spread out
over two bytes to the client.  Let's use the number of bits to return
the length to the client.

NOTE: this change has the potential to break clients!  Hopefully this
breakage will be lessened (or eliminated) with the previous patch
("nvmem: core: Allow nvmem_cell_read_u16/32/64 to read smaller
cells"), but it is possible for anyone directly calling
nvmem_cell_read().  From a quick audit of mainline I don't _see_ any
problems.  Most cases won't change at all (number of bits matched the
length) and the big case that will change is the Qualcomm "CPR" driver
which seems to handle the length properly (it could probably be
simplified now, actually).
