EEPROM header J7 may be unnecessary

Problem environment

Considering the rich toolset available in new Raspberry Pi hosts and the Raspberry Pi OS, it's probably no needed to populate a EEPROM header for use with a serial programmer.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Refer to the schematic
  2. Locate the header J7

Expected result

The J7 header is needed to program the EEPROM U6/U7.

Actual result

It is unknown how useful or necessary the J7 header would be.

Severity level

This is low priority because even if the header is unnecessary it may help during research work.

The J7 connector is needed to disable the write protect feature of common EEPROM devices, as illustrated from EEPROM structure work of 4f9180b.
