What you completely fail to explain how this can happen at all.

On RT the interrupt of that device is force threaded, but the handler
is called in hard interrupt context, which is wrong to begin with.

While the interrupt request in this driver is bogus:

ret = devm_request_irq(&pdev->dev, i2c->irq, exynos5_i2c_irq,
IRQF_NO_SUSPEND | IRQF_ONESHOT,
dev_name(&pdev->dev), i2c);

because it sets the ONESHOT flag for no reason, it does not set the
NOTRHEAD flag which would prevent force threading.

Hmm?
