First patch describes the new binding property.
Second patch adds the functionality to the driver.
Change between v2 and v1:
- Use a gpio regulator for power-supply control.

dt-bindings: at24: add new optional power-supply property
eeprom: at24: add support for power-supply control

2.37.1
Boards using the AT24 EEPROMs might have a GPIO that controls the power
supply of the chip, and it must be set to enable the usage of it.
Add a new optional property to the device tree binding document, which
allows to specify a GPIO regulator for the pin that controls the power.
On Linux this means that we need to enable the GPIO at the beginning of
probe function, before trying to access the chip.

This file doesn't exist any more. Use the latest -rc1 kernel unless
there is a reason you need a different (even later) base.

I applied the change on top of v6.0-rc1

Not really. The file is gone since v5.5-rc1 as you can easily see in the
sources.
Since you did not Cc-me, it's another proof you based your work on some
old kernel.
