I am not sure if you are aware of this document, so I mention it:

Documentation/i2c/DMA-considerations

I am not pushing you to use the i2c_get_dma_safe_msg_buf() helpers, just
wanted to make sure you know about them. I am also fine with an
incremental patch on top of this if you want to add usage of those
helpers somewhen later.

That all being said, I'd accept the patch as is, except for:

Shouldn't this be a seperate patch?

This should definately be a seperate patch. While I am all for taking
it, are you sure it does not regress on older Tegra platforms?
