i2c-omap.c vs. qemu: too much work in one irq (and broken boot)

[Pavel Machek]

Hi!

I'm trying to get qemu emulation of Nokia N900 to work, but
unfortunately i2c-omap.c breaks boot in the emulator (real hardware
works ok).

...

After 100 messages I get "Too much work in one IRQ" message, and then
repeat. I tried just disabling omap_i2c in the dts, but 1) its not
easy 2) I'd lose quite fundamental functionality.

Ideas welcome.

Best regards,

PS: If anyone is interested, this is why working qemu would be useful:
https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Nokia_N900_(nokia-rx51) . There's a
lot of work to be done in the userspace, and swapping SD cards is kind
of slow.
