Indeed, this should be added in order to catch this exception for the
AT91RM9200.

However, the main issue still there: the board is not able to deliver
data up to 2 bytes size without to run in the UNRE case.

Measuring the i2c bus, we verified that the data is not even arriving to
the data bus, i.e. either the kernel driver is too slow to handle it or
just we are missing some tweak required by the hardware
(nevertheless the datasheet does not give any clue).

Anyone with a AT91RM9200 that can test the proposed driver as well? it
will discard that is our hardware/board the issue rather than the
chipset itself.
