[RFC PATCH v1 1/3] dt-bindings:net:wireless:qca,ath9k: add nvmem-cells for calibration data

[Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@gmail.com>]

On most embedded ath9k devices (like range extenders,
routers, accesspoints, ...) the calibration data for
the RF/PHY is simply stored in a MTD partition named
"ART", "caldata"/"calibration", etc.

Any mtd partition is automatically registered in the
nvmem subsystem. This makes is possible to fetch the
necessary calibration directly from there at the low
cost of adding nvmem cell information via the
device-tree or via similar means.

This speeds up the driver's initialization a lot,
because the driver doesn't have to wait for userspace
to provide the data via helpers.
