I tried again as well and it still fails for me.

I think we should talk about the same case: Let me repeat what I did:

1) I added your patch "eeprom: at24: Add OF device ID table"
2) I added an EEPROM node to an I2C

+ eeprom@50 {
+ compatible = "renesas,24c01";
+ reg = <0x50>;
+ };

-> no at24 binding to the device

3) I revert your patch

-> at24 binding to the device

I think you should be able to test this DTS snipplet even without a real
eeprom. Especially after applying this to the at24 driver.

- err = at24_read(at24, 0, &test_byte, 1);

at24->nvmem_config.name = dev_name(&client->dev);
at24->nvmem_config.dev = &client->dev;


Can you check this?

Thanks,
