Enable i2c module/unit before transmission and disable when it
finishes.

why?
It's because the i2c bus may be disturbed if the slave device,
typically a touch, powers on.

Why should that be an issue?
Is it an errata.


Not I am aware of.

In which mode it is an issue slave / master or both?


since it talks about touch, I expect it to be master mode.

Thanks,
Vaibhav
