To justify the need for hardware lock, lets take a real usecase
scenario -
In case of Marvell SoC, PXA910 silicon, both AP and CP are present and
these two ARM cores are sharing one pair of I2C pins.
In order to keep I2C transaction operated with atomic, hardware lock
(RIPC) is required.
This patch extends support for atomic operation by adding hardware
lock support
to the i2c-core.
PATCH[1/3] : Core changes for hardware lock
PATCH[2/3 & 3/3] : hardware lock support to i2c-pxa bus driver.

Wolfram,
Any update on this patch-series?
Any update? Its long time since this patch is pending for review.
Thanks,
