Child nodes of a fixed-partitions node are not necessarily partition

register any partitions.

That does not sound right to me. A fixed-partitions node should only be 
defining partitions with address ranges. I would expect a partition node 
could be nvmem-layout, but not the whole address range. If you wanted 
the latter, then just do:

partitions {
  ...
};

nvmem-layout {
  ...
};
