I used kcalloc() initially as I didn't need buffer to be zeroed.

I see that memory-allocation.rst however says:

It's probably close to zero cost to zero that buffer so it could be kzalloc().

The problem is that nvmem_layout_get_match_data() uses:
layout->dev.driver

It doesn't work with layouts driver (since refactoring?) as driver is
NULL. That results in NULL pointer dereference when trying to reach
of_match_table.

That is why I used u_boot_env_of_match_table directly.

If you know how to fix nvmem_layout_get_match_data() that would be
great. Do we need driver_register() somewhere in NVMEM core?
