/*
* If the 'label' property is not present for the AT24 EEPROM,
* then nvmem_config.id is initialised to NVMEM_DEVID_AUTO,
* and this will append the 'devid' to the name of the NVMEM
* device. This is purely legacy and the AT24 driver has always
* defaulted to this. However, if the 'label' property is
* present then this means that the name is specified by the
* firmware and this name should be used verbatim and so it is
* not necessary to append the 'devid'.
* We initialize nvmem_config.id to NVMEM_DEVID_AUTO even if the
* label property is set as some platform can have multiple eeproms
* with same label and we can not register each of those with same
* label. Failing to register those eeproms trigger cascade failure
* on such platform.
