Subject: [PATCH 3/3] nvmem: core: Remove remains of nvmem_cell_table

From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" <linux@...blig.org>

With the previous patch removing the unused nvmem_add_cell_table, there's
no way to add a table, and thus the rest of the table infrastructure
can go.

Signed-off-by: Dr. David Alan Gilbert <linux@...blig.org>

-  };

 Additionally it is possible to create nvmem cell lookup entries and register
 them with the nvmem framework from machine code as shown in the example below::
