Is there an existing system that you have access to which needs atomic
transfer support, or is this a forward looking change?

Frankly speaking I've observed the mentioned warning during system
reboot on RaspberryPi4 with linux-next kernel compiled from
multi_v7_defconfig. It looks that this driver is used by VC4 DRM for
DDC. This issue doesn't look critical, but the fix seems to be trivial,
thus my patch.

Makes sense, thanks for confirming this fixes an actual issue you have seen and providing a fix for it.
