Michael Walle 5d8e6e6c10 nvmem: core: add an index parameter to the cell
Sometimes a cell can represend multiple values. For example, a base
ethernet address stored in the NVMEM can be expanded into multiple
discreet ones by adding an offset.

For this use case, introduce an index parameter which is then used to
distiguish between values. This parameter will then be passed to the
post process hook which can then use it to create different values
during reading.

At the moment, there is only support for the device tree path. You can
add the index to the phandle, e.g.

  &net {
          nvmem-cells = <&base_mac_address 2>;
          nvmem-cell-names = "mac-address";
  };

  &nvmem_provider {
          base_mac_address: base-mac-address@0 {
                  #nvmem-cell-cells = <1>;
                  reg = <0 6>;
          };
  };
