I am not sure if this is a behavior that is worth trying to mimic? Not yet. We can add this incrementally once we know most EERPOMs behave like this. It could be worth adding a comment, though, like: /* * FIXME: What to do if only 8 bits of a 16 bit address are sent? * The <your vendor & eeprom type> sends only 0xff then.

The eeprom tested is from ST, model M24C64. Should this be added in the code or in some doc folder?
I have another question. I'm considering adding a flag to set the virtual eeprom in read-only mode on the i2c side (but writable from the sysfs side). Should this be implemented as a separate i2c_device_id, or by trying to read som configuration flag from devicetree?
