This patch adds a library for reading from and writing to 93cx6 eeproms.

This looks remarkably like an SPI device, why not use the
spi framework to drive this?

This isn't intended to be a user-visible device.  Rather, it
is a support library for internal use by drivers to read hardware
configuration info, etc.  Given that, do we really need something as
heavy as implementing an SPI master, etc?
