[PATCH v2 0/2] NVIDIA Tegra I2C synchronization correction

From: Dmitry Osipenko

Hello,

Recently I found a way to reliably reproduce I2C timeouts that happen due
to improper synchronizations made by the I2C driver. It's quite easy to
reproduce the problem when memory is running on a lower freq + there is
some memory activity + CPU could get busy for a significant time. This
is the case when KASAN is enabled and CPU is busy while accessing FS via
NFS. This small series addresses the found problems.

Changelog:

v2: - The "Better handle case where CPU0 is busy for a long time" patch
now preserves the old behavior where completion is checked after
disabling the interrupt, preventing potential race-condition of
the completion awaiting vs interrupt syncing.

Dmitry Osipenko (2):
i2c: tegra: Better handle case where CPU0 is busy for a long time
i2c: tegra: Synchronize DMA before termination
