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.
