For a memory mapped device such as parallel NOR flash. It would be 
perfectly fine to translate a nvmem cell 'reg' address to a CPU address. 
If the partitions are not memory mapped, then it's a gray area. Whether 
it makes sense to translate just to just the absolute offset of the 
flash device, maybe or maybe not. At a minimum, 'ranges' just means 
can translate to the parent address space. The Linux DT translate code 
only supports the full translation to CPU addresses, but then it mainly 
just supports creating resources.
