i2c: tegra: proper handling of error cases To summarize the issue observed in error cases: SW Flow: For i2c message transfer, packet header and data payload is posted and then required error/packet completion interrupts are enabled later. HW flow: HW process the packet just after packet header is posted, if ARB lost/NACK error occurs (SW will not handle immediately when error happens as error interrupts are not enabled at this point). HW assumes error is acknowledged and clears current data in FIFO, But SW here posts the remaining data payload which still stays in FIFO as stale data (data without packet header). Now once the interrupts are enabled, SW handles ARB lost/NACK error by clearing the ARB lost/NACK interrupt. Now HW assumes that SW attended the error and will parse/process stale data (data without packet header) present in FIFO which causes invalid NACK errors. Fix: Enable the error interrupts before posting the packet into FIFO which make sure HW to not clear the fifo. Also disable the packet mode before acknowledging errors (ARB lost/NACK error) to not process any stale data. As error interrupts are enabled before posting the packet header use spinlock to avoid preempting.
