i2c: ocores: stop transfer on timeout

Detecting a timeout is ok, but we also need to assert a STOP command on
the bus in order to prevent it from generating interrupts when there are
no on going transfers.

Example: very long transmission.

1. ocores_xfer: START a transfer
2. ocores_isr : handle byte by byte the transfer
3. ocores_xfer: goes in timeout [[bugfix here]]
4. ocores_xfer: return to I2C subsystem and to the I2C driver
5. I2C driver : it may clean up the i2c_msg memory
6. ocores_isr : receives another interrupt (pending bytes to be
                transferred) but the i2c_msg memory is invalid now

So, since the transfer was too long, we have to detect the timeout and
STOP the transfer.

Another point is that we have a critical region here. When handling the
timeout condition we may have a running IRQ handler. For this reason I
introduce a spinlock.

In order to make easier to understan locking I have:
- added a new function to handle timeout
- modified the current ocores_process() function in order to be protected
  by the new spinlock
Like this it is obvious at first sight that this locking serializes
the execution of ocores_process() and ocores_process_timeout()
