Subject: [PATCH 1/2] dt-bindings: at24: new optional property - enable-gpios

Boards using the AT24 EEPROMs might have a GPIO that must be set to
enable the chip (e.g. pin that controls the power supply).

Add a new optional property to the device tree binding document, which
allows to specify the GPIO line to which the enable pin is connected.

On Linux this means that we need to hog the line at the beginning of
probe function.
