Driver will now supports enable/disable across msg xfer, which user

i2c-disable-after-xfer : If set, driver will disable I2C module after msg
xfer and enable it back before xfer.

If this is a new property specific to this Marvell part, it needs
the vendor prefix as in mrvl,i2c-disable-after-xfer


We discussed about this, I think in V1 or V2. Decided to use generic
name, as feature (in turn property) could be used by other drivers as
well.

Or, it couldn't hurt to start an i2c.txt for generic i2c bindings
and store it there as this and others later in this series would
reasonably apply to other controllers.


Yeah, we could start i2c.txt, probably better to have separate new
patch all together.


Thanks,
