In linux kernel since version 2.6.29 (release Date: 2009-03-23)  
If you say yes here you get read-only access to the EEPROM data
available on modern memory DIMMs and Sony Vaio laptops via I2C. Such
EEPROMs could theoretically be available on other devices as well.

This driver is deprecated and will be removed soon, please use the
better at24 driver instead.

This driver can also be built as a module. If so, the module
will be called eeprom.
