Do we still need the img_i2c_transaction_halt() in img_i2c_auto, or the
i2c->int_enable |= INT_SLAVE_EVENT in img_i2c_read/img_i2c_write now if
we're not bothering to wait until the start bit is detected before
re-enabling transaction halt?

Do we have confirmation from the hw guys that no matter how fast these
two functions execute, the two writes will be sufficient to allow the
transaction to continue?
Should something also be doing this quick temporary disable of t_halt
when the interrupt is generated after each byte? I don't see anything
doing that at the moment?
