Looks like PCF8594C-2 is compatible with atmel,24c04 - when you'll be
submitting this patch, please extend the at24 DT bindings with a new
naming exception (just like the one for renesas).

Feel free to drop this patch if you plan to submit the fix soon -
otherwise, apply it if it may take some time.

Thanks,
