update to ./Documentation/driver-api/nvmem.rst would help others.

we should provide nvmem_unregister_layout too, so that providers can add 
them if they can in there respective drivers.

access to add_cells can crash hear as we did not check it before adding 
in to list.
Or
we could relax add_cells callback for usecases like imx-octop.

looking at this, I think its doable to convert the existing 
cell_post_process callback to layouts by adding a layout specific 
callback here.
