Srinivas Kandagatla 731aa3fae8 nvmem: core: add support to auto devid
For nvmem providers which have multiple instances, it is required
to suffix the provider name with proper id, so that they do not
confict for the same name. Currently the core does not handle
this case properly eventhough core already has logic to generate the id.

This patch add new devid type NVMEM_DEVID_AUTO for providers to be
able to allow core to assign id and append it to provier name.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
