In fact dma_sync_single_for_cpu(DMA_TO_DEVICE) is not needed at all because it is a NO-OP on ARM, but technically it is needed to conform to DMA API. I think it is more logical that device owns dma buffer only during of the actual DMA transfer, the rest of the time CPU should be owner of the buffer.

You're waiting for DMA completion and then for the I2C message completion.

Hence your code is structured like this:

1. Issue DMA transfer
2. Wait for DMA completion
3. Wait for message completion

Why do you need to abort DMA in 3 if it was already completed in 2?

It looks to me that the subsys-init is a relict of the past and it should be fine to move I2C driver registration into the module-init level, of course it's not strictly necessary and could be done later on if desired.

Yes, I made that comment, but then corrected myself. Seems you missed the correction: https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/1/26/217

If you're having troubles with the corporate email, maybe you could try to switch to something else like gmail.

I've tried to apply this series locally, but again it fails to apply. What's the kernel base you're using? You should make your patches on top linux-next (preferably) or mainline.
