Enable i2c module/unit before transmission and disable when it
finishes.

why?
It's because the i2c bus may be disturbed if the slave device,
typically a touch, powers on.

I am not convinced, "may disturb" is too weak for me. It would need a
way more detailed description of the problem which makes clear that
this mechanism is the only way to go forward.


Hmm, Ok.
Not sure what else I can bring up here.

Can't you use Runtime PM for that?


I haven't tried it though, I can give a try and check.

Thanks,
Vaibhav
