yes,the cpufreq and regulator should start i2c job after they resume 
properly.

In "i2c-exynos5.c", it seems that using the "i2c->suspended" to protect 
i2c transfer works most of the time. Of course it could prevent the next 
new i2c transfer to start. But in one case, if the current i2c job was 
not finished until the i2c irq was disabled by system suspend, the i2c 
timeout error would also happen, as the current i2c job may have a large 
data to transfer and it lasts from a long time.

So is it necessary to add a mutex lock to wait the current job to be 
finished before the "i2c->suspended" is changed in i2c_suspend_noirq()?

However, the i2c_suspend_noirq() is called after suspend_device_irqs() 
in system suspend, it means that the i2c timeout errors could happen 
during the time between suspend_device_irqs() and i2c_suspend_noirq(), 
if there were i2c transfers started.
