So, that I get this correct: your IP core cannot detect a bus busy state
when its own slave address is acessed? Well, I know HW can have bugs,
but I still wonder because a bus is busy as soon as another START has
been detected, independent of which device is going to be accessed.

Even if so, why can't you use a mutex to prevent any master_xfer while
slave_xfer is ongoing?

Shouldn't that be enough according to the above description? Why do you
need the delay? I might be missing something...
