This makes a lot of sense. When a write operation is in progress, the
EEPROM is busy and may not ack its address. Whether the request is
another write or a read probably doesn't make a difference, a nack is a
nack. So the same waiting loop that we have for writes, is certainly
needed for reads as well. Shouldn't be too difficult. Any volunteer? I
can review the patch when it's done.
