returning IRQ_NONE is not what you want to do in this case. You want to
setup a flag so that your runtime_resume() knows that there are pending
events to be handled and you handle those in runtime_resume time.

But to be frank, I don't see how this can trigger since we're calling
pm_runtime_get_sync() from omap_i2c_xfer() which means by the time
pm_runtime_get_sync() returns, assuming no errors, i2c module should be
fully resumed and ready to go. Perhaps you have found a bug somewhere
else ?

Also, your 'We should never be here' message isn't helpfull at all.

because of IRQF_ONESHOT I can't see how this would *ever* be a valid
check.
