bind/unbind is just for connecting parser instance with a nvmem device,
but the real reason is because of need of these cell lookups info,
and then freeing them.
If it would be possible to lookup parser's cell without these lookups
(I tried to explain the issue with this in other reply in this series)
then yes, just adding cell info would be enough.
