From: Joeseph Chang <joechang@codeaurora.org>

Since patch v1 touch ssif_info->multi_pos and ssif_info->multi_data
after ssif_i2c_send(). msg_written_handler can be called at any time
after ssif_i2c_send(). There is possible to have concurrent access to
ssif_info->multi_pos or ssif_info->multi_data at msg_written_handler.

Revert patch v1 and add new local pointer "i2c_data" which point to
i2c data and size that will be sent out to avoid concurrent access in
msg_written_handler().
