Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] There are several eeprom drivers
Date: Mon, 31 Aug 2020 10:02:56 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200831100256.077ce253@endymion> (raw)
There used to be only 1 eeprom driver (named "eeprom") but now
there are 3 and the legacy "eeprom" driver is not the preferred
option. So list all 3 drivers in our documentation to prevent
confusion.
