10 Callback .read_post_process() is designed to modify raw cell content
11 before providing it to the consumer. So far we were dealing with
12 modifications that didn't affect cell size (length). In some cases
13 however cell content needs to be reformatted and resized.
14
15 It's required e.g. to provide properly formatted MAC address in case
16 it's stored in a non-binary format (e.g. using ASCII).
17
18 There were few discussions how to optimally handle that. Following
19 possible solutions were considered:
20 1. Allow .read_post_process() to realloc (resize) content buffer
21 2. Allow .read_post_process() to adjust (decrease) just buffer length
22 3. Register NVMEM cells using post-read sizes
23
24 The preferred solution was the last one. The problem is that simply
25 adjusting "bytes" in NVMEM providers would result in core code NOT
26 passing whole raw data to .read_post_process() callbacks. It means
27 callback functions couldn't do their job without somehow manually
28 reading original cell content on their own.
29
30 This patch deals with that by registering NVMEM cells with both lengths:
31 raw content one and post read one. It allows:
32 1. Core code to read whole raw cell content
33 2. Callbacks to return content they want
