[PATCH] i2c: img-scb: Fix img_i2c_isr deadlock issue

From: YE Chengfeng
Date: Sat Jun 24 2023 - 13:59:10 EST


The softirq img_i2c_isr and timer img_i2c_check_timer could deadlock
on the &i2c->lock when img_i2c_isr is preempted by the timer while
holding the lock &i2c->lock with spin_lock.

Deadlock scenario:
img_i2c_isr
-> spin_lock(&i2c->lock);
<timer interrupt>
-> img_i2c_check_timer
-> spin_lock_irqsave(&i2c->lock, flags);

To prevent this deadlock scenario, use spin_lock_bh to disable the
bottom half interrupt.
