Tested (not extensively) on Vybrid VF500 (Toradex VF50):
Tested-by: Krzysztof Kozlowski <krzk@kernel.org>

The I2C on Vybrid VF500 still works fine. I did not test this actual
condition (arbitration) but only a regular I2C driver (BQ27xxx fuel
gauge). Obviously this only proves that regular operation is not
broken...

Alternatively if you have a specific testing procedure (reproduction of
a problem), please share.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
