Subject: [PATCH 5.18 160/339] i2c: mediatek: Optimize master_xfer() and avoid circular locking

From: AngeloGioacchino Del Regno <angelogioacchino.delregno@...labora.com>

[ Upstream commit 8b4fc246c3fffde96835b2f6d5d0e2a56c70d8f9 ]

Especially (but not only) during probe, it may happen that multiple
devices are communicating via i2c (or multiple i2c busses) and
sometimes while others are probing asynchronously.
For example, a Cr50 TPM may be filling entropy (or userspace may be
reading random data) while the rt5682 (i2c) codec driver reads/sets
some registers, like while getting/setting a clock's rate, which
happens both during probe and during system operation.

In this driver, the mtk_i2c_transfer() function (which is the i2c
.master_xfer() callback) was granularly managing the clocks by
performing a clk_bulk_prepare_enable() to start them and its inverse.
This is not only creating possible circular locking dependencies in
the some cases (like former explanation), but it's also suboptimal,
as clk_core prepare/unprepare operations are using mutex locking,
which creates a bit of unwanted overhead (for example, i2c trackpads
will call master_xfer() every few milliseconds!).

With this commit, we avoid both the circular locking and additional
overhead by changing how we handle the clocks in this driver:
- Prepare the clocks during probe (and PM resume)
- Enable/disable clocks in mtk_i2c_transfer()
- Unprepare the clocks only for driver removal (and PM suspend)

For the sake of providing a full explanation: during probe, the
clocks are not only prepared but also enabled, as this is needed
for some hardware initialization but, after that, we are disabling
but not unpreparing them, leaving an expected state for the
aforementioned clock handling strategy.
