Why do you define individual memory cells? Is this part of a binding?
IOW, OS/Linux requires this?
nvmem has in kernel interface where you can reference to nodes. nvmem_cell_get()
calls. It means you should be able to describe internal layout that's why names
are used. And address in name is there because of reg property is used to
describe base offset and size.
That's not really what I am asking. Why internal layout of memory must
be part of the bindings?
It doesn't need to be but offsets are hardcoded inside the driver itself and
they can't be different. On different nvmem locations like MAC location in
eeprom this can vary across boards but in this case location has to be only like
this.
I am fine if they don't need to be actually check but there is no any other way
how they can be composed. And also others are not valid that's why not to
describe only valid one.
Thanks,
Michal
