[PATCH 0/5] nvmem: support more NVMEM cells variants

From: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@xxxxxxxxxx>

Some NVMEM devices don't have NVMEM cells at hardcoded offsets and they
can't be strictly specified in a binding. Those devices usually store
NVMEM cells in some internal format. We still need a way of referencing
such hidden / dynamic NVMEM cells.

This patchset adds support for bindings like:

nvram@1eff0000 {
compatible = "brcm,nvram";
reg = <0x1eff0000 0x10000>;

mac_addr: cell-0 {
label = "et0macaddr";
};
};

ethernet@18024000 {
compatible = "brcm,amac";
reg = <0x18024000 0x800>;

nvmem-cells = <&mac_addr>;
nvmem-cell-names = "mac-address";
};

Rafał Miłecki (5):
dt-bindings: nvmem: add "label" property to allow more flexible cells
names
nvmem: core: read OF defined NVMEM cell name from "label" property
dt-bindings: nvmem: allow referencing device defined cells by names
dt-bindings: nvmem: brcm,nvram: add NVMEM cell to example
nvmem: core: add cell name based matching of DT cell nodes
