[PATCH 4/8] nvmem: core: add transformations support

[Michael Walle]

Sometimes the value of an nvmem cell must be transformed. For example, a
MAC address might be stored in ASCII representation or we might need to
swap bytes. We might also want to expand one value to mutliple ones, for
example, the nvmem cell might just store a base MAC address to which we
need to add an offset to get an address for different network
interfaces.

Add initial support to add such transformations based on the device tree
compatible string of the NVMEM device. It will reuse the nvmem post
process hook. Both are mutually exclusive.
