I didn't see anything scary on this patch but my last interaction with this i2c
controller was a long time ago, so I can't really comment the heart of this patch.

However if it worked on your board at least it is not too buggy ;)

I still made a few trivial comments

It's really a nitpick but the style for long (multi-line) comments
this should be:
	/*
	 * This transfer will be complete with this chunk of data
	 * BUT is this the last transfer of the list ?
	 */

The style you used was for files in net/ and drivers/net/,
see "Chapter 8: Commenting" of the Documentation/CodingStyle file

please use a define for it
something like
#define FLUSH_TIMEOUT 100
