Typically if you have

i2c_dw_xfer()
i2c_dw_xfer_unlocked()

The only difference is that the former call the latter with lock held.
However, this is not the case here which is confusing.

I suggest move the lookup to be part of the _unlocked() variant.

While there, can we use size_t with the num parameter.

Not really problem of this patch but I'm sure there is cleaner way to deal
with this. I mean first of all we don't wan't to differentiate here what
model this is. Instead we can look for a "quirks" based on dev->flags.

Secondly goto inside switch is confusing too.

This can be better written like:

if ((dev->flags & MODEL_MASK) == MODEL_AMD_NAVI_GPU) {
	...
}

This can be

	break;
