Agree! I missed this.

I wanted to instantiate a NVMEM cell with proper offset and size via DT and
make whatever Ethernet driver aware of this NVMEM cell via DT bindings, as
bellow:

&i2cnode {
	// ...
	eeprom0: eeprom0@52 {
		compatible = "atmel,24mac02e4";
		#address-cells = <1>;
		#size-cells = <0>;
		reg = <0x52>;
		pagesize = <16>;
		size = <256>;
		status = "okay";

		eeprom0_eui48: eui48@fa {
			reg = <0xfa 0x6>;
		};
	};
};

&gmac {
	// ...

	nvmem-cells = <&eeprom0_eui48>;
	nvmem-cell-names = "mac-address";

	// ...
};

By adding this new compatible and changing the driver to not adjust the
NVMEM cell offset for it but make it use the one provided in DT I was
thinking this may scale for any future EEPROM storing MAC addresses at any
offsets (because these would be provided via DT and not adjusted by driver).

I the current at24 driver I haven't managed to find a compatible in the
driver that mach the offset 0xfa (used to store MAC address on case of
24AA025E48).

Meaning describing the NVMEM cell in DT with an offset such that the driver
adjustment +/- that offset to lead to the offset described in EEPROM datasheet?
