I can remove "fix spurious IRQs: " from $SUBJECT. What do you think?

Yes - from one side. From other side, this patch prevents such situation 
to happen.
disable_irq(_dev->irq); - waits for any pending IRQ handlers for this 
interrupt
to complete before returning.

If we are in .runtime_idle() callback - it means I2C transaction has 
been finished
(and It doesn't matter successfully or not) and we don't want to receive 
IRQs any more.

As I mentioned in cover-latter this happens because PM runtime 
auto-suspend isn't
working properly during the boot:

[   23.190002] omap_i2c 48350000.i2c: ==== i2c_add_numbered_adapter

--- and expired after ~40 ms

So, there are no guaranty that this race will not happen even if I'll do 
"mark last busy"
in HW IRQ handler (, because in high CPU load use case the threaded IRQ 
can be delayed.

I2C driver should not receive IRQs after finishing the transfer.

ok.

Actually, I can confirm, that this patch really fixes "spurious IRQs" issues
when M3 Ducati is enabled :).

Sorry, for delayed reply - I've had problems with my e-mail.
