I see. I see it this way: the setup callback comes from the time when
we didn't have nvmem and should go away. I will protest loud whenever
someone will try to use it again and will work towards removing it as
soon as possible.

The setup() callback could be moved into the nvmem framework, rather
than in the at24 driver. Make the call when the cells have been
connected to the backing store.

This would at least make it more generic. And maybe I could also get
rid of the setup callback from the mityomapl138 board file.

I will give your problem a thought and will try to get back with some
proposals - maybe we should, as you suggested, extend nvmem even
further to allow to remove nvmem info entries etc.

That does not help me too much. I have the same problem with i2c and
MDIO. So i actually prefer to keep this the same as all others.
