There was a misunderstanding on my side. I thought your comment was
about the nvmem-layout node. Actually you were commenting about all the
sub-nodes defining nvmem-cells inside, so I'm fully aligned with your
response.

However, if I understood it correctly, you basically said that:

	property:
	  $ref: foo.yaml

is not the same as:

	property:
	  type: object
	  $ref: foo.yaml

If that's the case, then should we consider dropping this patch (which
you agreed with in the first place)?
