I agree but if you want to really bring on this change, you should add
some kind of write support... and clocks... and regulators with different
voltage levels (write/fuse-blow voltage, read voltage if any)...

Describing this entire thing in device-tree should be possible, but then
some SoCs may need a specific register sequence in order to enter writing
mode, which is something that you can't just put in devicetree, so this
driver should be a framework on its own - hence not as simple as proposed.

Regards,
Angelo
