Arnd Bergmann e20f378d99 nvmem: include bit index in cell sysfs file name
Creating sysfs files for all Cells caused a boot failure for linux-6.8-rc1 on
Apple M1, which (in downstream dts files) has multiple nvmem cells that use the
same byte address. This causes the device probe to fail with

[    0.605336] sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/platform/soc@200000000/2922bc000.efuse/apple_efuses_nvmem0/cells/efuse@a10'

As far as I can tell, this is a problem for any device with multiple cells on
different bits of the same address. Avoid the issue by changing the file name
to include the first bit number.

What: /sys/bus/nvmem/devices/.../cells/ Date: May 2023 KernelVersion: 6.5 Contact: Miquel Raynal miquel.raynal@bootlin.com Description: The "cells" folder contains one file per cell exposed by the NVMEM device. The name of the file is: "@,", with being the cell name and its location in the NVMEM device, in hexadecimal bytes and bits (without the '0x' prefix, to mimic device tree node names). The length of the file is the size of the cell (when known). The content of the file is the binary content of the cell (may sometimes be ASCII, likely without trailing character). Note: This file is only present if CONFIG_NVMEM_SYSFS is enabled.

	  hexdump -C /sys/bus/nvmem/devices/1-00563/cells/product-name@d,0
