After reverting this patch, I get some sporadic write errors but no kernel crashes:

root@letux:~# while true; do i2cset -y 1 0x69 0x14 0xb6 && echo good; done
Error: Write failed
good

So there are chips (like BMG160) which might block the SDA/SCL lines in a
strange way where the patched i2c driver fails instead of timing out and
reporting an error.

Therefore, I'd suggest to revert it or find a proper fix.

BR and thanks,
Nikolaus
