This patch set converts the old EEPROM drivers in driver/misc/eeprom to
use the NVMEM framework. These drivers export there content in /sys as
read only to root, since the EEPROM may contain sensitive information.
So the first patch adds a flag so the NVMEM framework will create its
file in /sys as root read only.

To keep backwards compatibility with these older drivers, the contents
of the EEPROM must be exports in sysfs in a file called eeprom in the
devices node in sys, where as the NVMEM places them under class/nvmem.
So add this optional backwards compatible to the framework, again
using a flag.

Then convert the at24, at25 and 93xx46 by adding regmap support,
removing each drivers own /sys code and registering with the NVMEM
framework.

AT24 and 93xx46 has been boot tested, at25 compile tested only.

v2:

nvmem_register() now supports a backwards compatible flag, and the
Kconfig option has been removed.

v3:

Rebase on v4.5-rc1.
Add a patch to replace memory_accessor in the setup() callbacks with
nvmem API calls

v4:

Rebase on v4.5-rc3
Fix lockdep key in patch #2

v5:
Remove useless test
Added Acked-bys.

v6:
Fix typ0 and stray newline
Add tested-by:
