The shifting of the u8 integer buf[3] by 24 bits to the left will
be promoted to a 32 bit signed int and then sign-extended to a
u64. In the event that the top bit of buf[3] is set then all
then all the upper 32 bits of the u64 end up as also being set
because of the sign-extension. Fix this by casting buf[i] to
a u64 before the shift.

Sometimes the clients of nvmem just want to get a number out of
nvmem. They don't want to think about exactly how many bytes the nvmem
cell took up. They just want the number. Let's make it easy.
In general this concept is useful because nvmem space is precious and
usually the fewest bits are allocated that will hold a given value on
a given system. However, even though small numbers might be fine on
one system that doesn't mean that logically the number couldn't be
bigger. Imagine nvmem containing a max frequency for a component. On
one system perhaps that fits in 16 bits. On another system it might
fit in 32 bits. The code reading this number doesn't care--it just
wants the number.
We'll provide two functions: nvmem_cell_read_variable_le_u32() and
nvmem_cell_read_variable_le_u64().
Comparing these to the existing functions like nvmem_cell_read_u32():
* These new functions have no problems if the value was stored in
nvmem in fewer bytes. It's OK to use these function as long as the
value stored will fit in 32-bits (or 64-bits).
* These functions avoid problems that the earlier APIs had with bit
offsets. For instance, you can't use nvmem_cell_read_u32() to read a
value has nbits=32 and bit_offset=4 because the nvmem cell must be
at least 5 bytes big to hold this value. The new API accounts for
this and works fine.
* These functions make it very explicit that they assume that the
number was stored in little endian format. The old functions made
this assumption whenever bit_offset was non-zero (see
nvmem_shift_read_buffer_in_place()) but didn't whenever the
bit_offset was zero.
NOTE: it's assumed that we don't need an 8-bit or 16-bit version of
this function. The 32-bit version of the function can be used to read
8-bit or 16-bit data.
At the moment, I'm only adding the "unsigned" versions of these
functions, but if it ends up being useful someone could add a "signed"
version that did 2's complement sign extension.
At the moment, I'm only adding the "little endian" versions of these
functions. Adding the "big endian" version would require adding "big
endian" support to nvmem_shift_read_buffer_in_place().
