treewide: backport support for nvmem on non platform devices
In the current state, nvmem cells are only detected on platform device. To quickly fix the problem, we register the affected problematic driver with the of_platform but that is more an hack than a real solution. Backport from net-next the required patch so that nvmem can work also with non-platform devices and rework our current patch. Drop the mediatek and dsa workaround and rework the ath10k patches. Rework every driver that use the of_get_mac_address api. Signed-off-by: Ansuel Smith <ansuelsmth@gmail.com>

-Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ath10k: Try to get mac-address from dts
-
-Most of embedded device that have the ath10k wifi integrated store the
-mac-address in nvmem partitions. Try to fetch the mac-address using the
-standard 'of_get_mac_address' than in all the check also try to fetch the
-address using the nvmem api searching for a defined 'mac-address' cell.
-Mac-address defined in the dts have priority than any other address found.
-
-Tested-on: QCA9984 hw1.0 PCI 10.4
