    i2c: stm32f7: fix a race in slave mode with arbitration loss irq · 6d6b0d0d
    Fabrice Gasnier authored
    When in slave mode, an arbitration loss (ARLO) may be detected before the
    slave had a chance to detect the stop condition (STOPF in ISR).
    This is seen when two master + slave adapters switch their roles. It
    provokes the i2c bus to be stuck, busy as SCL line is stretched.
    - the I2C_SLAVE_STOP event is never generated due to STOPF flag is set but
      don't generate an irq (race with ARLO irq, STOPIE is masked). STOPF flag
      remains set until next master xfer (e.g. when STOPIE irq get unmasked).
      In this case, completion is generated too early: immediately upon new
      transfer request (then it doesn't send all data).
    - Some data get stuck in TXDR register. As a consequence, the controller
      stretches the SCL line: the bus gets busy until a future master transfer
      triggers the bus busy / recovery mechanism (this can take time... and
      may never happen at all)
    
    So choice is to let the STOPF being detected by the slave isr handler,
    to properly handle this stop condition. E.g. don't mask IRQs in error
    handler, when the slave is running.
