[PATCH v3 7/7] nvmem: add a comment about resource management

[Bartosz Golaszewski <brgl@xxxxxxxx>]

From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bgolaszewski@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

The fact that part of the resources associated with the nvmem resources
is freed by the release() callback in device_type caused me some
confusion. Add a comment explaining that to nvmem_register().
