Instead, set the initial data field directly.

(the initial data is an array of 256 bytes. As I don't know if it may
change over time, I keep the pointer to original buffer as is, but it
might be worth to consider to copy it instead)

All the callers to smbus_eeprom_init_one() allocate the
memory for the initial data, populate it, pass the pointer
to smbus_eeprom_init_one() and do not save the pointer
anyway. So we effectively "own" the data -- we could choose
to copy the data and make the callers free the memory instead.

I'd still like to know what the right QOM way to pass
256 bytes of constant data to a device as a property is.


thanks

A property with a uint list visitor is the closest thing we have I
guess. We can probably have a specialized QObject to hold a fixed
array, but string form will probably remain a list, I guess.

I can try that, but this is quite complicated to pass 256 bytes internally..
