Can you please add more description to the commit message. For example
which i2c client drivers need this functionality and what HW (imx SoC variant)
was tested with this patch.

Here some issues should be fixed:
- Reusing is_lastmsg to signal STOP signal for not last msg is
confusing. May be is_stopped will be OK.
- Please combine if statements for I2CR_MSTA and I2CR_RSTA case. One of
both should be used on not first message. I2CR_MSTA if I2CR_MSTA was
cleared on previous round, or I2CR_RSTA if I2CR_MSTA was not cleared
before.
In current implementation this patch will fail to set Repeated Start
condition if first message was with the I2C_M_STOP flag, but other
messages do not have this flag. For example:
When Message 1 finishes with the I2C_M_STOP flag, it will clear the
I2CR_MSTA flag, which changes the mode to Slave mode.
Message 2, not having an I2C_M_STOP flag, will simply set the I2CR_MSTA
flag again, starting a new transaction with a new Start condition, not
requiring a Repeated Start (I2CR_RSTA).
However, by Message 3, the issue arises. Since Message 2 does not clear
I2CR_MSTA (as it lacks the I2C_M_STOP flag), setting I2CR_MSTA again in
Message 3 will have no effect because it's already set. But the problem
here is that the "is_lastmsg" flag is still true from Message 1, which
causes the driver to skip setting the I2CR_RSTA flag. Therefore, a
Repeated Start condition is not generated between Message 2 and 3, which
is a problematic behavior if the device expects a Repeated Start
condition between the two messages.
