Yes, it's true. Actually there's some not smart firmware on some I2C
client devices that they may fetch wrong data as slave address and
command. There're two solutions for this bus busy issue. One is _not_
using this kind of client device. The other one is sending enough dump
clock to push these client device back to idle state.
