Subject: [PATCH] i2c: cadence: Avoid fifo clear after start

Driver unintentionally programs ctrl reg to clear fifo which is
happening after start of transaction, this was not the case previously
as it was read-modified-write. This issue breaks i2c reads on QEMU as
i2c-read is done before guest starts programming ctrl register.

Fixes: ff0cf7bca6309 ("i2c: cadence: Remove unnecessary register reads")
