Arnd Bergmann e20f378d99 nvmem: include bit index in cell sysfs file name
Creating sysfs files for all Cells caused a boot failure for linux-6.8-rc1 on
Apple M1, which (in downstream dts files) has multiple nvmem cells that use the
same byte address. This causes the device probe to fail with

[    0.605336] sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/platform/soc@200000000/2922bc000.efuse/apple_efuses_nvmem0/cells/efuse@a10'

As far as I can tell, this is a problem for any device with multiple cells on
different bits of the same address. Avoid the issue by changing the file name
to include the first bit number.

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.
