Commit 29be47fcd6a0 ("nvmem: zynqmp_nvmem: zynqmp_nvmem_probe cleanup")
changed the driver to expect the device pointer to be passed as the
"context", but in nvmem the context parameter comes from nvmem_config.priv
which is never set - Leading to null pointer exceptions when the device is
accessed.

Neither of these git ids are valid, where did you get them from?

git describe --contains c708bbd57d158d9f20c2fcea5bcb6e0afac77bef
next-20250505~21^2~1^2

I guess it should have been fe8abdd175d7b547ae1a612757e7902bcd62e9cf
instead, E.G. what ended up in master?

We can't take stuff in stable unless it is in Linus's tree.

Sure, it was apparently just the wrong commit hash used, E.G.:

git describe --contains fe8abdd175d7b547ae1a612757e7902bcd62e9cf
v6.16-rc1~30^2~32
