I tried testing this by connecting I2C1 and I2C2 (schematic numbering)
on the AST2600A2 EVB. I got it working, but only when I read a single
byte. There's more about that below, but it's a different issue
unrelated to this patch.

On to the bug I saw:

When reading one byte, it works:

root at ast2600a2:~# dd status=none
if=/sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-2/2-0064/eeprom  count=1 bs=1| hexdump -C
00000000  48                                                |H|

If I try to read more than one byte:

root at ast2600a2:~# dd status=none
if=/sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-2/2-0064/eeprom  count=1 bs=2 | hexdump -C

dd: error reading '/sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-2/2-0064/eeprom':
Connection timed out


If I then go back to reading one byte, I get the error the first time
but the data does come out:

root at ast2600a2:~# dd status=none
if=/sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-2/2-0064/eeprom  count=1 bs=1 | hexdump -C

00000001

Subsequent reads work as expected.

With further debugging turned on, this is the log of doing a two byte read:

This is the result of the first single byte read after the error state:

This is unrelated to your change, but should be investigated by anyone
looking at slave support on the ast2600.

Lets go ahead with merging this change.
