If you get an error the function masks all interrupts and jumps to
tx_aborted label. With this patch you unmask all interrupts again before
exiting the function.

What if the next AMD I2C controller needs another quirk, and then
another?

I would rather pass flags or similar (reference to config structure
including flags) with ->driver_data.
