[PATCH v7 0/7] Read MAC address from SST vendor specific SFDP region

Some Microchip/SST QSPI flashes (e.g. the SST26VF064BEUI) are factory
programmed with globally unique, write-protected EUI-48 and EUI-64
identifiers stored in a vendor-specific SFDP parameter table. On boards
that have no on-board EEPROM (sama5d27_wlsom1, sama5d29 curiosity,
sam9x75 curiosity) this is a reliable source for an Ethernet MAC address,
instead of relying on a U-Boot-provided or random address.

The series exposes the SFDP as a generic NVMEM framework with no vendor
code in the SPI NOR core:
 - The SPI NOR core exposes the entire SFDP as a generic read-only NVMEM
   device, rooted at a new "sfdp" child node of the flash.
 - A new NVMEM layout driver (drivers/nvmem/layouts/) locates the
   Microchip vendor parameter table at runtime and presents the EUI-48 as
   a "mac-address" cell.
 - Arbitrary parameters can be read with a standard fixed-layout
   (known offset) or with an nvmem-layout parser (location discovered at runtime).

Changes in v7:
 - 1/7 - Add blank lines in the "sfdp" schema per review;
 		 Add Reviewed-by: Rob Herring.
 - 2/7 - Add Reviewed-by: Rob Herring.
 - 3/7 - Drop the spi_nor_sfdp_nvmem_put_np() helper and
 		 call of_node_put() right after devm_nvmem_register().
 - 6/7 - Note in the commit message that the sama5d27_wlsom1 SoM ships the
         factory-programmed SST26VF064BEUI, so the EUI-48 "mac-address"
         cell is always present.

Changes in v6:
 - 3/7 - Move the SFDP NVMEM registration from sfdp.c into core.c, since
         sfdp.c is only for parsing the tables;use of_get_compatible_child()
		 instead of the open-coded child-node lookup.
 - 2/7, 6/7, 7/7 - Add Reviewed-by: Linus Walleij.

Changes in v5:
 - 1/7 and 5/7 - Add R-b tags
 - 3/7- Rework the comments, function name and commit message.Check all the nodes
        (for_each_available_child) for the right compatible "jedec,sfdp" instead
		of node name.

Changes in v4:
 - Rework per v3 review: remove the vendor-specific SFDP handling from the
   SPI NOR core; expose the whole SFDP as a generic read-only NVMEM device
   and move the EUI extraction into an nvmem-layout driver.
 - Introduce a new nvmem-layout driver to discover the vendor-table location
   at runtime; no offset hardcoded in the device tree.
 - Describe the SFDP via a dedicated "sfdp" subnode (compatible
   "jedec,sfdp"), which also resolves the v3 dtbs_check "Unevaluated
   properties ('nvmem-layout')" warning.
 - Reverse the stored EUI bytes into canonical MAC order.
 - Enable the layout in sama5_defconfig.

 Changes in v3:
 - 2/3 - add support to update the QSPI partition into 'fixed-partition'
   binding in sama5d27_wlsom1
 - 3/3 - add nvmem-layout in qspi node for EUI48 MAC Address and nvmem cell
   properties for macb node in sama5d27_wlsom1

Changes in v2:
 - 1/3 - parse the SST vendor table, read and store the addresses
  into a resource - managed space. Register the addresses
  into NVMEM framework
 - 2/3 - add support to update the QSPI partition into 'fixed-partition'
  binding
