Subject: [PATCH v4 0/1] nvmem: Add support for write-only instances, and
 clean-up

Hello all,

Previous version: https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/3/9/731

Changed since previous version:

- Hopefully fixed memory leak fully. I set CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK and
  according to the leak detector, it is no longer leaking. I believe the
  leak was when setting the device name. I could not find out how to
  free that in the required context. But I avoided it by moving the
  groups above setting the name.

  If you believe there is still a leak, please be specific about what
  you think it is. I have been reading up this week about the driver
  interfaces and trying to figure it out, but I have had trouble finding
  good reading material.

- I squashed the two patches together as advised by Srinivas.

- Changed from -EPERM to -EINVAL for invalid configuration.
