This driver to get read/write support to most I2C EEPROMs,
after you configure the driver to know about each EEPROM on
your target board. Use these generic chip names, instead of
vendor-specific ones like at24c64 or 24lc02:
24c00, 24c01, 24c02, spd (readonly 24c02), 24c04, 24c08,
24c16, 24c32, 24c64, 24c128, 24c256, 24c512, 24c1024
Unless you like data loss puzzles, always be sure that any chip
you configure as a 24c32 (32 kbit) or larger is NOT really a
24c16 (16 kbit) or smaller, and vice versa. Marking the chip
as read-only won't help recover from this. Also, if your chip
has any software write-protect mechanism you may want to review the
code to make sure this driver won't turn it on by accident.
