Binding for fixed NVMEM cells defined directly as NVMEM device subnodes has been deprecated. It has been replaced by the "fixed-layout" NVMEM layout binding. New syntax is meant to be clearer and should help avoiding imprecise bindings. NVMEM subsystem already supports the new binding. It should be a good idea to limit support for old syntax to existing drivers that actually support & use it (we can't break backward compatibility!). That way we additionally encourage new bindings & drivers to ignore deprecated binding. It wasn't clear (to me) if rtc and w1 code actually uses old syntax fixed cells. I enabled them to don't risk any breakage.
is there any chance I can have this accepted / pushed, please? It's a tiny optimization and it makes sure people don't use deprecated syntax with new drivers. I also noticed this will probably let me drop an unclear and non-intuitive no_of_node config option.
