Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL for 4.4 068/162] i2c: cadance: fix ctrl/addr reg write
 order

From: Matt Weber <matthew.weber@...kwellcollins.com>

[ Upstream commit 8064c616984eaa015f018dba595d78cd24a0cc8c ]

The driver was clearing the hold bit in the control register before
writing to the address register which resulted in a stop condition
being generated rather than a repeated start.

This issue was only observed when a system was running much
slower than a normal processor would execute.  The IP data sheet
mentions a ordering of writing to the address register before
clearing the hold.
