> Previously I landed commit 02b9aec59243 ("i2c: i2c-qcom-geni: Fix DMA
> transfer race") to fix a race we were seeing.  While that most
> definitely fixed the race we were seeing, it looks like it causes
> problems in the TX path, which we didn't stress test until we started
> trying to update firmware on devices.
> 
> Let's revert that patch and try another way: fix the original problem
> by disabling the interrupts that aren't relevant to DMA transfers.
> Now we can stress both TX and RX cases and see no problems.  I also
> can't find any place to put an msleep() that causes problems anymore.
> 
> Since this problem only affects i2c, I'm hoping for an Ack from Bjorn
> and then all these patches can go through the i2c tree.  However, if
> maintainers want to work a different way out to land that's OK too.
> 
> NOTE: the 3rd patch in the series could certianly be squashed with
> patch #1 or I could re-order / rejigger.  To me it seemed like a good
> idea to first fix the probelm (and make the two functions as much of
> an inverse as possible) and later try to clean things up.  Yell if you
