Hi Guenter

I would of expected a property to indicate the eeprom is present, not
a length value. The switch determines the length, or at least the
minimum length. So the switch driver can return the length, if the
eeprom is indicated to be present.

Also, all device tree properties need to be documented. I've not
looked through all the patches, so maybe it is in a separate patch?

This also does not look right. The default is that there is no
property in DT, meaning the EEPROM is not present. So
ds->pd->eeprom_len is zero. So the first if is not taken. It then
calls into the driver which is return a length, independent of if it
is populated or not.

If we are going with your suggested binding, no value in DT, or a
value of 0 mean no EEPROM. If there is a value in DT
dsa_slave_get_eeprom_len() should return that value. Asking the driver
is redundant, you can remove the get_eeprom_len() call.

However, if DT just indicates the eeprom is populated or not, you
should call the driver get_eeprom_len() is the eeprom property is
present.

This should be conditional on the length/present.

Same again.
