I have a couple of comments about the original driver which gets
copy-pasted in the new layout driver, maybe you could clean these
(the memory leak should be fixed before the migration so it can be
backported easily, the others are just style so it can be done after, I
don't mind).

Out of curiosity, why kcalloc(1,...) rather than kzalloc() ?

We could directly return ENOMEM here I guess.

Don't we need to free buf in the above cases?

Looks a bit convoluted, any chances we can use intermediate variables
to help decipher this?

Please drop this error message, the only reason for which the function
call would fail is apparently an ENOMEM case.

In the core there is currently an unused helper called
nvmem_layout_get_match_data() which does that. I think the original
intent of this function was to be used in this driver, so depending on
your preference, can you please either use it or remove it?
