In the next patch you introduce the nvmem DT property, and set the length
part to "0x2". So for the D1 we will always read two bytes.

I believe they are stored as a little endian 16-bit integer in the fuses.
I haven't tried a BE kernel, but I think the NVMEM framework takes care of
that.
If you dump the values as returned by nvmem_cell_read(), we would know for
sure.

Well, I am not sure either, but neither the H6, nor the H616 or the D1
apparently really need that: they all use either 4 or 2 bytes to encode
the speed bin. And since the routines are SoC specific anyway, and the
first 32-bit word of the buffer filled by nvmem_cell_read() should always
be valid (and be it 0), I think there is little need to check that.
I ported the H616 code over, and it looks somewhat similar to the D1 (with
different numbers, though): it's (ab)using some die revision code (the
first two bytes in the SID) to derive the speed bin. The H6 had a
dedicated bin fuse.

So iff we are going to see a SoC needing to check the length, we can always
introduce that later: it's just an internal function.
But for now I'd like to keep it simple.
