(at24Cxyz [i2c] and at25Cxyz [spi]).  The interface is a separate file from
the protocol, so it should be applicable.  It's up for grabs if someone goes
down this road.  All the 8-bit guys have internal eeprom, and we (arm7/9)
don't, so it seems a good match, I've been putting eeproms on my pcb's for
some time now, even though they only see very occasional use.
