Subject: [PATCH 4.14 21/95] i2c: designware: fix poll-after-enable regression

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Alexander Monakov <amonakov@...ras.ru>

commit 06cb616b1bca7080824acfedb3d4c898e7a64836 upstream.

Not all revisions of DW I2C controller implement the enable status register.
On platforms where that's the case (e.g. BG2CD and SPEAr ARM SoCs), waiting
for enable will time out as reading the unimplemented register yields zero.

It was observed that reading the IC_ENABLE_STATUS register once suffices to
avoid getting it stuck on Bay Trail hardware, so replace polling with one
dummy read of the register.
