the semantics are irrelevant.  it's an external non-volatile memory device 
accessed via the eeprom command.  the document you posted looks like that 
device doesnt have any way of querying it, so eeprom_info() for that device 
would be useless.  if this is normal among i2c eeproms, i'll repost the patch 
with eeprom_info behind CONFIG_SPI.  most SPI flashes nowadays support the 
jedec id command which allows for dynamic detection (which is how the 
Blackfin SPI driver that i wrote works).  hook up any SPI flash and it "just 
works".
