From: Lori Hikichi <lori.hikichi@broadcom.com>

Enable handling of i2c repeated start. The current code
handles a multi msg i2c transfer as separate i2c bus
transactions. This change will now handle this case
using the i2c repeated start protocol. The number of msgs
in a transfer is limited to two, and must be a write
followed by a read.

changes from v1:
 - Address following review comments from Wolfarm Sang,
   Use i2c_8bit_addr_from_msg() api instead of decoding i2c_msg struct and
   remove check against number of i2c message as it will be taken care
   by core using quirks flags.

Patch looks good but doesn't apply for me on top of v5.4-rc4? What was
your base?

Also, I will apply it to for-next (v5.5). If you want it for v5.4, then
please add a Fixes tag.

thank you, please apply it to for-next (v5.5).
Do I need to resend patch again for you to apply it to v5.5 ?
