Subject: [PATCH 1/6] dt-bindings: nvmem: add cell-type to nvmem cells

From: Srinivas Kandagatla <srinivas.kandagatla@...aro.org>

Some of the nvmem providers encode data for certain type of nvmem cell,
example mac-address is stored in ascii or with delimiter or in reverse order.

This is much specific to vendor, so having a cell-type would allow nvmem
provider drivers to post-process this before using it.
