We can currently only register nvmem cells from device tree or by
manually calling nvmem_add_cells(). The latter options however forces
users to make sure that the nvmem provider with which the cells are
associated is registered before the call.

This patch proposes a new solution inspired by other frameworks that
offer resource lookups (GPIO, PWM etc.). It adds a function that allows
machine code to register nvmem lookup which are later lazily used to
add corresponding nvmem cells.

Overall the idea look fine to me.

This needs to be documented in ./Documentation/nvmem/nvmem.txt

Can we rename this to nvmem_add_lookup_table()?
register sound bit heavy here.

We should also have something like nvmem_remove_lookup_table() for consistency, and it should ensure that it clears the cells entry too.
