Driver will now supports enable/disable across msg xfer, which user

If this is a new property specific to this Marvell part, it needs
the vendor prefix as in mrvl,i2c-disable-after-xfer


We discussed about this, I think in V1 or V2. Decided to use generic
name, as feature (in turn property) could be used by other drivers as
well.

Ahh, ok, thanks...coming in too late on this one. :)

Or, it couldn't hurt to start an i2c.txt for generic i2c bindings
and store it there as this and others later in this series would
reasonably apply to other controllers.


Yeah, we could start i2c.txt, probably better to have separate new
patch all together.

Great, yes, I've always found it hard to follow i2c generic bindings
since they aren't defined in a clear place like other similar hardware
(e.g. SPI).


Wolfram has already owned up on creating i2c.txt for generic properties.
So, we will be soon close to others.

And thanks for your comments.
Please let me know if you have any other comments on patch-series, so
that I can incorporate it in next version.

Thanks,
Vaibhav
