Hi Christian,
main purpose of this patch is to get serial number from this chip. I 
don't have it done yet, in older kernels I expose it as separate file in 
sysfs, but in this kernel no luck. So a post first things while I'm 
working on sernum exposing.

Does your chip has serial number? Can you read it?

Any help welcomed.
Thanks
Jiri

PS: If standard EEPROMs has some commands to get size etc., why it's not 
used? I guess that size is increased as time goes while board is still 
the same, so isn't it annoying changing dt every new lot with bigger 
eeproms.
