If the bus is in the middle of any other kind of access or sequence of
accesses, it's hard to predict what this will do.
If it's a 512 byte SPD EEPROM and the last page select was to page 1,
this will read byte 256 rather than byte 0. The thread needs to do
its own set page 0 write to ensure it knows what it is reading.

In DDR4, you might also encounter:
* 0x10 - 0x17 NVDIMM controller (pre-standard)
* 0x40 - 0x47 NVDIMM controller (JESD245 Byte Addressable Energy Backed Interface)

You do need to write to 0x36 and 0x37 a lot while accessing
SPD EEPROMs in DDR4:
* 0x36 selects SPD page 0 (bytes 0-255) on all DIMMs
* 0x37 selects SPD page 1 (bytes 256-511) on all DIMMs
Since the page selects are broadcast, you cannot have independent threads
talking to different DIMM SPD EEPROMs unless they're very coordinated.

JC-42 is the name of a JEDEC committee. TSE2004av is "the family of"
"Serial Presence Detect (SPD) EEPROMs and Temperature Sensor (TS) as
used for memory module applications" in DDR4, defined by JEDEC
standard No. 21-C section 4.1.6. The earlier TSE2002av only supported
256 bytes of SPD EEPROM. Since the driver is already called jc42.c,
maybe add a comment with the actual standards references.
