Hmm. I actually missed we didn't have one to begin with. at25.txt exists
and it documents a number of properties specific to at25, so if at24 will
have an at24-specific property, then I think it should go to a separate
file.

Aren't there really other chips which need this? It'd be (a little bit)
easier to just remove the sentence. :-)
