Given the amount of code I wonder if this shouldn't be integrated in
mtdcore.c and unconditionally compiled in.

Include nvmem-provider.h instead of re-defining struct nvmem_device
here.

Hm, I don't see any #if IS_ENABLED() or #ifdef CONFIG_ statements in
this file. I know it adds an extra 32/64 bits field for nothing if the
feature is disabled, but how about keeping the struct definition simple
by unconditionally adding the nvmem field.
