It's because it was developed on top of "nvmem: u-boot-env: error if NVMEM
device is too small" which you applied to the "char-misc-linus" branch.
Perhaps you could push that fix ("error if...") to your both branches
somehow?
I can pull the char-misc-linus branch into my -next branch if that would
help out here? Give me a few days to let 0-day run on things to make
sure they are all sane first.
