[PATCH v2 00/15] NVMEM: Add support for layout drivers

Hi,

with this patchset the barebox nvmem-core is prepared for the Linux
nvmem-layout drivers. Layout drivers are used to describe the NVMEM
storage format. The patchset also adds the support to read nvmem-cells
via the devfs. This makes it possible to read the cells from the board
code or shell without the need of referencing the cells within the DT.

A long with the alignment and feature work I fixed a few issues like:
honor the DT alias for a nvmem provider correctly.

For the new features to work correctly the NVMEM core had to be partly
(re-)synced with the one from Linux. This involved porting different DT
helpers.

Unfortunately this patchset doesn't add a NVMEM layout driver therefore
a __dummy__.o is added within the Makefile.

I decided to start from a fresh v1 because of the rework I've done. But
for reference, the previous patchset can be found here:
