 Optional properties:
   - clock-frequency: Desired operating frequency, in Hz, of the bus.
   - clock-names: Input clock name, should be 'pclk'.
+  - defeature-repeated-start: Include this property to defeature repeated start
+			      This defeature is due to a few bugs in the
+			      I2C controller.
+			      Completion interrupt after a read/receive
+			      operation is NOT obtained if HOLD bit is set
+			      at that time. Because of this bug, repeated start
+			      will only work if there are no transfers following
+			      a read/receive transfer.
+			      If HOLD is held for long without a transfer,
+			      invalid read transactions are generated by the
+			      controller due to a HW timeout related bug.
