Add support for SPD5118 (Jedec JESD300-5B.01) compliant temperature

I can get the module to automatically probe with this change:

Maybe you can add that to your series.


That is specifically for SPD (eeprom) support, which I didn't provide
in the driver. It does not register the equivalent jc42.4 temperature
sensor either. Given that, using the code to register a temperature
sensor seems inappropriate.

I see, I wasn't aware about the specifics of SPD.

It felt like a nice way to get automatic probing.
(I was wondering about that today before)

I didn't include accessing the SPD eeprom to the driver because I don't
have a use case. I don't mind adding it, though, if others think that it is
important.

Wolfgang seems to think it's important:

Ok, but that doesn't explain the reason. Wolfram, Paul, why do you
think this is needed ? Note that I am not opposed to adding spd
eeprom support, but I'd like to know why I am doing it before
I spend time on it.

Auto detection would be nice, though, because with that we could
drop support for the _detect function (which is kind of risky
on the i2c address range normally used for eeproms).

Thanks,
Guenter
