[PATCH] i2c: aspeed: Fix i2c bus hang in slave read

From: Jian Zhang
Date: Thu Aug 10 2023 - 03:22:30 EST


When the `CONFIG_I2C_SLAVE` option is enabled and the device operates
as a slave, a situation arises where the master sends a START signal
without the accompanying STOP signal. This action results in a
persistent I2C bus timeout. The core issue stems from the fact that
the i2c controller remains in a slave read state without a timeout
mechanism. As a consequence, the bus perpetually experiences timeouts.

This proposed patch addresses this problem by introducing a status
check during i2c transmit timeouts. In the event that the controller
is in a slave read state, the i2c controller will be reset to restore
proper functionality and allow the I2C bus to resume normal operation.
