P.S. Found the longer description at

Refer to: Documentation/misc-devices/eeprom.rst". What does that even mean, it is for Raspberry Pi Compute IO carrier only?
According to
https://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/devicedoc/doc0180.pdf
the chips differ in how their address lines are used. Either they select
a chip or a memory address.
The chip is at reg 0x50. So it could be that if you read the upper
memory of atmel,24c04 it would use reg 0x51.
https://datasheets.raspberrypi.com/cm4io/cm4io-datasheet.pdf says the
CM4IO board has an RTC at address 0x51.
Together with the commit message this really sounds like the smaller
chip size is faked due to incompatibility.
Running i2cdetect on my Mars Milk-V board shows that a device is
responding to address 0x51:
$ sudo i2cdetect 5
I will probe file /dev/i2c-5.
I will probe address range 0x08-0x77.

As you mentioned to have access to a CM module I would like to know what
its serial number looks like to understand what if it can be used to
detect if we are running U-Boot on full board or a CM module.
For my Milk-V board I have:
MARS-V11-2340-D008E000-xxxxxxxx
