[PATCH] i2c: mediatek: fix WRRD for SoCs without auto_restart option

[Roman Vivchar via B4 Relay]

From: Roman Vivchar <rva333@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

MediaTek mt65xx family SoCs have no auto restart, however, they still
support the WRRD mode in the hardware. Because auto_restart is set to 0,
the WRRD mode will be never enabled, leading to read errors.

Fix this by removing auto_restart check from the WRRD enable path.

This is a preparation for the mt6572/6595 upstreaming.

mt65xx family SoCs don't have auto restart, but vendor kernels keep using
WRRD mode. Lack of the WRRD mode makes i2c reads impossible from both
userspace and kernel drivers.

Without patch (mt6595, da9210 buck at 0x68):
~ # i2cget -y 1 0x68 0x00
Error: Read failed
~ # i2cget -y 1 0x68 0x01
Error: Read failed

With patch:
~ # i2cget -y 1 0x68 0x00
0x80
~ # i2cget -y 1 0x68 0x01
0x00

Same behavior observed on mt6572 devices.

This change doesn't affect SoCs with auto restart option.
