[PATCH 6.19 458/781] power: reset: nvmem-reboot-mode: respect cell size for nvmem_cell_write

From: Alexander Koskovich <AKoskovich@pm.me>

[ Upstream commit 36b05629226413836cfbb3fbe6689cd188bca156 ]

Some platforms expose reboot mode cells that are smaller than an
unsigned int, in which cases lead to write failures. Read the cell
first to determine actual size and only write the number of bytes the
cell can hold.
