i2c: at91: fix write transfers by clearing pending interrupt first
In some cases a NACK interrupt may be pending in the Status Register (SR)
as a result of a previous transfer. However at91_do_twi_transfer() did not
read the SR to clear pending interruptions before starting a new transfer.
Hence a NACK interrupt rose as soon as it was enabled again at the I2C
controller level, resulting in a wrong sequence of operations and strange
patterns of behaviour on the I2C bus, such as a clock stretch followed by
a restart of the transfer.
This first issue occurred with both DMA and PIO write transfers.
Also when a NACK error was detected during a PIO write transfer, the
interrupt handler used to wrongly start a new transfer by writing into the
Transmit Holding Register (THR). Then the I2C slave was likely to reply
with a second NACK.
This second issue is fixed in atmel_twi_interrupt() by handling the TXRDY
status bit only if both the TXCOMP and NACK status bits are cleared.
Tested with a at24 eeprom on sama5d36ek board running a linux-4.1-at91
kernel image. Adapted to linux-next.
