I2C_CLIENT_PEC should be set by backend before calling i2c_slave_register() ie

client->flags |= I2C_CLIENT_PEC;
ret = i2c_slave_register(client, i2c_slave_eeprom_slave_cb);

My backend code is not yet publicly available.

Yes, it depends on the backend. If backend is SMBUS device and
supports PEC then it should set client->flags |= I2C_CLIENT_PEC,
before calling i2c_slave_register(), so that the slave bus driver will
enable PEC in device.
