You made me think about it but no - while I haven't measured it yet, I
don't think it's worth the code complexity behind it. The i2c driver
doesn't do it this way for short transfers either. If you insist I can
test it and come forward with numbers but unless we encounter a
real-life example of the need for lots of very short reads/writes in
short succession, I don't think we should overcomplicate this.

Makes sense.

Yes, but this is an error path. What would I do if the cancel failed
to go through and then the abort failed as well? I can at best emit an
error message.

It should never happen but I wanted to be sure. Maybe a BUG_ON() or
WARN_ON() would be better?
