This does not look like an nvmem at all, it appears that you
are creating an alternative to the soc_device infrastructure
based on a binary interface tunneled through the nvmem subsystem.

Why not just make this a soc_device and have drivers use
soc_device_match() if they need to know what chip they are
running on?
