nvmem: layouts: Add fixed-layout driver

2026-08-19T16:18:14+00:00

commit b5be879519291f139fa7b365fd0dbc84710e4919 upstream. Current implementation isn't working well when device tree nodes have a phandle on a fixed-layout nvmem node. As the fixed layout is handled in nvmem core, no driver is ever associated with the layout, and the device consumer driver probe is deferred indefinitely. Remove the specific handling of fixed-layout and add a layout driver. This makes the fixed-layout similar to all other layouts, fixing the whole issue.

nvmem: core: fix use-after-free bugs in error paths

2026-06-19T11:44:09+00:00

commit 5b6b6fc491899d583eaa75344e094796ae9b530b upstream. Fix several instances of error paths in which we call __nvmem_device_put() - which may end up freeing the underlying memory and other resources - and then keep on using the nvmem structure. Always put the reference to the nvmem device as the last step before returning the error code.

nvmem: Drop OF node reference on nvmem_add_one_cell() failure

2026-03-04T12:21:17+00:00

[ Upstream commit f397bc0781553d01b4cdba506c09334a31cb0ec5 ] If nvmem_add_one_cell() failed, the ownership of "child" (or "info.np"), thus its OF reference, is not passed further and function should clean up by putting the reference it got via earlier of_node_get(). Note that this is independent of references obtained via for_each_child_of_node() loop.

nvmem: make nvmem_bus_type constant

2025-07-16T12:30:05+00:00

Now that the driver core can properly handle constant struct bus_type, move the nvmem_bus_type variable to be a constant structure as well, placing it into read-only memory which can not be modified at runtime.

nvmem: Remove unused nvmem cell table support

2025-05-21T12:28:27+00:00

Board files are deprecated by DT, and the last user of nvmem_add_cell_table() was removed by commit 2af4fcc0d3574482 ("ARM: davinci: remove unused board support") in v6.3. Hence remove all support for nvmem cell tables, and update the documentation. Device drivers can still register a single cell using nvmem_add_one_cell() (which was not documented before).
