nvmem: core: handle the absence of expected layouts
Make nvmem_layout_get() return -EPROBE_DEFER while the expected layout is not available. This condition cannot be triggered today as nvmem layout drivers are initialed as part of an early init call, but soon these drivers will be converted into modules and be initialized with a standard priority, so the unavailability of the drivers might become a reality that must be taken care of. Let's anticipate this by telling the caller the layout might not yet be available. A probe deferral is requested in this case. Please note this does not affect any nvmem device not using layouts, because an early check against the "nvmem-layout" container presence will return NULL in this case.
