[PATCH 3/3] eeprom: at24: make device name setup more robust

With two eeproms that have a different compatible string (in my case
"at,24c64" and "at,24c32") dev->id is 0 for both which results in a
failure to bind the device that is probed later.
So pick a name more intelligently: If there is an alias defined in the
device tree, use this one, otherwise pick a free index.
