So what happens here is that the TS driver issues one I2C transfer, which fails with (apparently bogus) timeout (because DMA descriptor is completed and removed from the pending list, but tasklet not executed yet), and then TS immediately issues another I2C transfer that re-uses the yet-incompleted descriptor. That's my understanding.
