Is this a race? Anyway, > the diagnostic is pretty frequent and annoying. printk_once? I'll try to reproduce it on my side. The only issue you have is having the message about RXRDY? I mean no issue with i2c transfers? It is not the possible bug we had in mind, this bug will prevent the master device to release the i2c bus. It will stop the transfer but without sending a stop on the bus.
