It replaces a pretty much identical downstream patch.

+Subject: [PATCH] nvmem: Do not expect fixed layouts to grab a layout driver
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Two series lived in parallel for some time, which led to this situation:
+- The nvmem-layout container is used for dynamic layouts
+- We now expect fixed layouts to also use the nvmem-layout container but
+this does not require any additional driver, the support is built-in the
+nvmem core.
+
+Ensure we don't refuse to probe for wrong reasons.
+
+Fixes: 27f699e578b1 ("nvmem: core: add support for fixed cells *layout*")
