Please read Guneter's commit message
2be6b47211e17e6c90ead40d24d2a5cc815f2d5c to confirm that your changes
do not invalidate the fix that they made.  Add them to CC for review.

Again, this is a fix that is independent of the ssif work. Please send
it separately with a Fixes line.

Nit: this comment can be on one line.

I'm not sure what this note means.

Are you intentionally only acking the bits that are set when we read
from STS_REG at the start of the handler? If not, we could write this
instead:

writel(ASPEED_I2CD_INTR_RX_DONE | ASPEED_I2CD_INTR_TX_ACK |
ASPEED_I2CD_INTR_TX_NAK,
        bus->base + ASPEED_I2C_INTR_STS_REG);

If you only want to ack the bits that are set, then do this:

  writel(irq_received &
            (ASPEED_I2CD_INTR_RX_DONE | ASPEED_I2CD_INTR_TX_ACK |
ASPEED_I2CD_INTR_TX_NAK),
         bus->base + ASPEED_I2C_INTR_STS_REG);

That way, you can avoid all of the tests.

When you move this, please add a comment that reminds us why we do a
write-then-read (see commit c926c87b8e36dcc0ea5c2a0a0227ed4f32d0516a).
