During SMBus block data read process, we have seen high interrupt rate
because of TX_EMPTY irq status while waiting for block length byte (the
first data byte after the address phase). The interrupt handler does not
do anything because the internal state is kept as STATUS_WRITE_IN_PROGRESS.
Hence, we should disable TX_EMPTY irq until I2C DW receives first data
byte from I2C device, then re-enable it.

It takes 0.789 ms for host to receive data length from slave.
Without the patch, i2c_dw_isr is called 99 times by TX_EMPTY interrupt.
And it is none after applying the patch.

Is it possible to reduce the indentations level? Like this:

		/*

			break;

   			/* more bytes to be written */
   			dev->status |= STATUS_WRITE_IN_PROGRESS;

Thank you very much for your advice. I will update in V2.

1. What about just:
	regmap_update_bits(dev->map, DW_IC_INTR_MASK, DW_IC_INTR_TX_EMPTY,
			   DW_IC_INTR_TX_EMPTY);
Right, much better with this update. I'll update it in v2.
2. The in-situ comment is pointless because the statement already
implies the IRQ re-enabling. I suggest to add more details of _why_
the IRQ needs to be re-enabled (what is supposed to be done after it's
re-enabled?).

Got that. I will add more context here. Thank for the advice.
