Switching the clock frequently will affect the data transmission
efficiency, and prolong the timeout to reduce autosuspend times for
lpi2c.

Hi, Thank your for your quick ack!

Apologies for the unclear explanation. The efficiency I'm referring to isn't just for I2C. For platforms with SC firmware
like the 8X series, every i2c transfer to enable or disable the clock notifies the SC firmware to perform a clock operation.
So if the autosuspend time is short, i2c may enable and disable clock frequently, it will occupy resources of the SC firmware.

Therefore, we add this patch to minimize the excessive sc firmware resource waste caused by frequent I2C clock enable/disable operations.
