[PATCH v4 0/2] i2c: aspeed: Late ack Tx done irqs and handle coalesced start with stop conditions

[Quan Nguyen]

This series consists of two patches to handle the below issues observed
when testing with slave mode:
  + The coalesced stop condition with the start conditions
  + Early ack'ed of Tx done (ACK and NAK) causing "Unexpected Ack on
  read request".

This series was verified with ast2500 and ast2600.
