I checked the vendor kernel tree and saw another case that you perhaps
need to fold something similar below into your patch, along with your
disabling controller?

     In some case，log like this:

     [   12.393926] rk3x-i2c ff150000.i2c: irq in STATE_IDLE, ipd = 0x51
     [   12.416592] rk3x-i2c ff150000.i2c: irq in STATE_IDLE, ipd = 0x51

     The i2c clock is disabled, so the pending irq clean is not
     worked. Disable the interrupt after the i2c jobs were done,
     the error log would not happen.


/* Disable i2c all irqs */
#define IEN_ALL_DISABLE   0

i2c_writel(i2c, IEN_ALL_DISABLE, REG_IEN);i2c_writel(i2c, 
IEN_ALL_DISABLE, REG_IEN);
