While I agree that the generic EEPROM driver may not be the best place to do it, neither is a driver for a specific SoC i2c controller. The hardware design is not specific to any particular i2c controller. Perhaps we need the generic i2c core to take into account an i2c-supply? Wolfram, any thoughts on this? Best regards, Tomasz
