Subject: [PATCH 3/3] nvmem: mediatek: Fix later provider initialization

From: Andrew-CT Chen <andrew-ct.chen@...iatek.com>

Possibly, provider driver initialization is later than
consumer driver. Use function subsys_initcall to initialize
NVMEM provider early to ensure NVMEM consumer doesn't need
to -EPROBE_DEFER.
