From: ryan_chen <ryan_chen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit c926c87b8e36dcc0ea5c2a0a0227ed4f32d0516a upstream. In AST2600 there have a slow peripheral bus between CPU and i2c controller. Therefore GIC i2c interrupt status clear have delay timing, when CPU issue write clear i2c controller interrupt status. To avoid this issue, the driver need have read after write clear at i2c ISR.
