The AT24 EEPROM driver does not initialise the 'id' field of the nvmem_config structure and because the entire structure is not initialised, it ends up with a random value. This causes the NVMEM driver to append the device 'devid' value to name of the NVMEM device. Although this is not a problem per-se, for I2C devices such as the AT24, that already have a device unique name, there does not seem much value in appending an additional 0 to the I2C name. For example, appending a 0 to an I2C device name such as 1-0050 does not seem necessary and maybe even a bit confusing. Therefore, fix this by setting the NVMEM config.id to NVMEM_DEVID_NONE for AT24 EEPROMs.
