Boards using the AT24 EEPROMs might have a GPIO that controls the power supply of the chip, and it must be set to enable the usage of it. Add a new optional property to the device tree binding document, which allows to specify a GPIO regulator for the pin that controls the power. On Linux this means that we need to enable the GPIO at the beginning of probe function, before trying to access the chip.
