[PATCH 5/7] nvmem: support deep probe

[Ahmad Fatoum]

With deep probe, drivers referencing nvmem-cells should make sure their
providing nvmem device is already probed. The nvmem cell already takes
care to find out the device node providing the cell. The real provider
that should be probed is then either:

  - If the node is in a nvmem-cells partition, the provider is the
    parent node (skipping a possible fixed-partitions node in-between)

  - Otherwise, the provider is the parent node of the cell
