A reasonable "compatible" value would be something like
"serial-eeprom-24c32".
You can go a little bit more generic than that, if you write up in
your binding how the driver should figure out the device size and
the protocol used.
Matching on "serial-eeprom-24c32" requires me to convince the at24
authors to add that string as an alias binding for their driver.
No, it requires the IIC subsystem to get fixed and not use OF
"compatible" values as module alias names.
How
about "serial-eeprom,24c32" or "generic,24x32"?
Neither "serial-eeprom" nor "generic" is the name of a vendor, so
no. The comma has a well-defined meaning. Why would a comma be
easier than a dash for your device matching code, anyway?
