On the GTA04A5 writing a reset command to the gyroscope causes IRQ
storms because NACK IRQs are enabled and therefore triggered but not
acked.
Sending a reset command to the gyroscope by
i2cset 1 0x69 0x14 0xb6
with an additional debug print in the ISR (not the thread) itself
causes
[ 363.353515] i2c i2c-1: ioctl, cmd=0x720, arg=0xbe801b00

(0x2 = NACK, 0x100 = Bus free, which is not enabled)
Apparently no other IRQ bit gets set, so this stalls.
Do not ignore enabled interrupts and make sure they are acked.
If the NACK IRQ is not needed, it should simply not enabled, but
according to the above log, caring about it is necessary unless
the Bus free IRQ is enabled and handled. The assumption that is
will always come with a ARDY IRQ, which was the idea behind
ignoring it, proves wrong.
It is true for simple reads from an unused address.
So revert
commit c770657bd261 ("i2c: omap: Fix standard mode false ACK readings").
The offending commit was used to reduce the false detections in
i2cdetect. i2cdetect warns for confusing the I2C bus, so having some
rare false detections (I have never seen such on my systems) is the
lesser devil than having basically the system hanging completely.
No more details came to light in the corresponding email thread since
several months:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-omap/20230426194956.689756-1-reidt@xxxxxx/
so no better fix to solve both problems can be developed right now.
Fixes: c770657bd261 ("i2c: omap: Fix standard mode false ACK readings").
