[PATCH] i2c: rk3x: disable and reenable I2C after timeouts to fix stuck low SDA

Previously the SDA line sometimes remained stuck low after timeouts
rendering the I2C bus unusable. Testing has shown that disabling and
reenabling the I2C peripheral after sending the stop condition seems to
unstick SDA reliably.
Disable and reenable the I2C controller on timeout after sending stop
condition to unstick SDA.
