Something interleaving will break it. pdbg for example. Talk to Alistair, the right thing here would probably be to have a separate driver that provides the XSCOM interface via i2c to both in-kernel and userspace, with proper arbitration. An expedient might be to instead have the address and data cycles of the above be 2 i2c messages in one i2c request, thus being serialized somewhat atomically with other transactions to that i2c bus. You may need to make sure the underlying i2c controller driver supports dual messages, and if it doesn't fix it. This is rather classic 4-bytes subaddress style i2c, it shouldn't be too hard.
