Yes.

At the begin of my work on this patchset I even denied clock disable 
call if slave is registered (to minimize code that can affect transfer). 
If only slave mode is used, then this logic is not needed.

tegra_i2c_init is called on probe and resume. Also it is called in case 
of xfer fail. If xfer is ok, then I think slave addr must be kept unchanged.

As far as I understand it is a loopback mode. Probably it will not work 
(Stephen Warren already mentioned this).
But we can try to run it.
