Sorry for the delayed responses.

Thanks for the explanation. Fixed this possible race by protecting
gi2c->cur
and calling geni_i2c_abort_xfer() with adding another parameter to
differentiate
from which sequence is the geni_i2c_abort_xfer() called and handle the
spin_lock/spin_unlock accordingly inside geni_i2c_abort_xfer()

Now handled this by adding a bool variable "stop_xfer" in geni_i2c_dev
struct,
used to put stop to upcoming geni_i2c_rx_one_msg() and
geni_i2c_tx_one_msg() calls
once we receive the shutdown call.

We are turning off clocks and disabling irq in
geni_i2c_runtime_suspend().

IIUC about shutdown sequence, during "remove" we will unplug the device
with opposite
calls to "probe's" plug operations example i2c_del_adapter(). For
"shutdown", as system
is going to shutdown, there is no need of unplug operations to be done.
