Indeed, the i2c-mpc driver sends TXAK (only) after receiving
that interrupt. Since that is running in the context of the user
process, that may well be delayed substantially on a loaded system.

Maybe the interrupt handler will need to play a more active role
in the i2c-mpc driver. Alternatively, the transfer function could
be handled by a high priority kernel thread.
