linux-kernel - Re: [PATCH 1/1] The AT24 driver only uses page size of 1 byte if no platform data is provided to the probe function. When this eeprom is detected via open firmware tree in powerpc architecture the correct chip type is given to the probe function. So the driver can extract the page size for optimal performance out of this chip type.

NAK. Page size may differ across vendors, so we can't hardcode values in
that table. There is a "pagesize" property for devicetree.

And please make sure you don't write the whole description in the
subject.
