Hi All,

Sorry, for the late reply.
+ CC Huzefa Kankroliwala - who is I2C driver owner on Android Kernel 3.4.

Regarding this patch -  from my point of view, it fixes corner case and not an 
issue in general.
Let take a look on resume sequence:
   - platform resume
   - syscore resume
   - resume_noirq
   - enable IRQs - resume_device_irqs()
     |- at this point IRQ handler will be invoked if IRQ state is IRQS_PENDING.
     |- so, the I2C device IRQ handler may be called at time when I2C adapter 
IRQ is still disabled and, as result, the I2C device IRQ-handler may fail. (I2C 
device and I2C adapter may use different physical IRQ lines)
   - resume_late
     |- enable I2C bus IRQ

Possibly, the better way is to enable/disable I2C bus IRQ when needed - in our 
case in omap_i2c_xfer().
We use such approach in Android kernel 3.4

This version looks good, thanks for the extra comments.

Wolfram, This should also probably be Cc'd to stable since it affects
earlier kernels as well.  Thanks,

Kevin
