[PATCH 2/2] nvmem: core: Expose cells through sysfs

[Miquel Raynal]

The binary content of nvmem devices is available to the user so in the
easiest cases, finding the content of a cell is rather easy as it is
just a matter of looking at a known and fixed offset. However, nvmem
layouts have been recently introduced to cope with more advanced
situations, where the offset and size of the cells is not known in
advance or is dynamic. When using layouts, more advanced parsers are
used by the kernel in order to give direct access to the content of each
cell regardless of their position/size in the underlying device, but
these information were not accessible to the user without re-writing the
parser logic in userland.

The current implementation only adds the 'cells' attributes if cells are
found within the device, otherwise the folder does not appear.

Exposed cells are read-only. There is in practice everything in the core
to support a write path, but as I don't see any need for that, I prefer
to keep the interface simple (and probably safer). The interface is
documented as being in the "testing" state which means we can later add
a write attribute if though relevant.

Of course the relevant NVMEM sysfs Kconfig option must be enabled for
this support to be compiled-in.

There is one limitation though: if a layout is built as a module but is
not properly installed in the system and loaded manually with insmod
while the nvmem device driver was built-in, the cells won't appear in
sysfs. But if done like that, the cells won't be usable by the built-in
kernel drivers anyway.
