π nvmem_cell_put(9) β the Kernel API Manual glow-up π
okay so first things first, bestie: this page lives in the Kernel API Manual, and the whole thing is literally just called nvmem_cell_put(9). That's the vibe. That's the assignment. β¨

like, you borrowed a cell, now give it back. be a good citizen. π«Ά
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ

π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
cellβ Previously allocated nvmem cell bynvmem_cell_get. yeah, that one. the cell you got earlier. you know the one. don't pretend you forgot. π
side note, queen: you can only hand back a cell that nvmem_cell_get already gave you. no inventing cells. that's not the move. π

also, if you were wondering where the actual code lives, it's in the kernel file ./drivers/nvmem/core.c β that's the source directory too, iykyk. π
and that's the whole page, bestie π this little gem comes from ./drivers/nvmem, dated October 2026, and it's filed under nvmem_cell_put(9) β mwah, iconic, no notes. ππ§β
