-Subject: nvmem: core: return error for non word aligned access
-
-nvmem providers have restrictions on register strides, so return error
-when users attempt to read/write buffers with sizes which are less
-than word size.
-
-Without this patch the userspace would continue to try as it does not
-get any error from the nvmem core, resulting in a hang or endless loop
-in userspace.
