All,
The original author Alanx chiang has left the company. I assigned Ken to help handle the cherrypick task (4.14 and 4.18).
Regards, Andy

Please cherry-pick the following commit to 4.14 and 4.18:
commit a2b3bf4846e5eed62ea6abb096af2c950961033c Author: Alan Chiang alanx.chiang@intel.com Date: Wed Jul 25 11:20:22 2018 +0800
eeprom: at24: Add support for address-width property
Provide a flexible way to determine the addressing bits of eeprom. Pass the addressing bits to driver through address-width property.

Confirmed to work on 4.14 with the Identification Page of an ST M24M02-DR (256 bytes but 16 bit addressing).
Cannot be cherry-picked trivially on 4.9.
The corresponding documentation commit 21d04054501fb27b56e995b54ac74e39aee79a46 can be cherry-picked to 4.18, the backport for 4.14 is below.
Thanks Adrian

Currently the only way to use a variant of a supported model with a different address width is to define a new compatible string and the corresponding chip data structure.
Provide a flexible way to specify the size of the address pointer by defining a new property: address-width.
