U-Boot env data is a way of storing firmware variables. It's a format that can be used of top of various storage devices. Its binding should be an NVMEM layout instead of a standalone device.

This patch adds layout binding which allows using it on top of MTD NVMEM device as well as any other. At the same time it deprecates the old combined binding.

I don't understand the issue. From a DT perspective, there isn't. A partition is not a device, but is describing the layout of storage already.
