Will separate this patch into independent series in next version.

Let me explain with the two examples below in normal case and the case 
where this patch is for:

In normal case:
The first transaction is Slave send (Master read):
    20(addr) 03(singlepart read) 03 1c 2e d5

Then the second Master write follow as below:
    20(addr) 02(singlepart write) 02 18 08 59

The irq will raise in sequence below:

  irq      data  from-state      to-state
00000084  20    INACTIVE        WRITE_RECEIVED
00000004  03    WRITE_RECEIVED  WRITE_RECEIVED <= RX_DONE
00000084  03    WRITE_RECEIVED  READ_PROCESSED
00000001  1c    READ_PROCESSED  READ_PROCESSED <= TX_ACK
00000001  2e    READ_PROCESSED  READ_PROCESSED
00000001  d5    READ_PROCESSED  READ_PROCESSED
00000002  xx    READ_PROCESSED  INACTIVE       <= TX_NAK

00000084  20    INACTIVE        WRITE_RECEIVED <= SLAVE_MATCH & RX_DONE
00000004  02    WRITE_RECEIVED  WRITE_RECEIVED
00000084  02    WRITE_RECEIVED  WRITE_RECEIVED
00000004  18    WRITE_RECEIVED  WRITE_RECEIVED
00000004  08    WRITE_RECEIVED  WRITE_RECEIVED
00000004  59    WRITE_RECEIVED  WRITE_RECEIVED
00000010  xx    WRITE_RECEIVED  INACTIVE

But sometimes:
The first transaction is Slave send (Master read):
    20(addr) 03(singlepart read) 03 1c 42 cc a5

Then the second Master write follow as below:
    20(addr) 02(singlepart write) 03 18 42 0c 63

The irq will raise in sequence below:

  irq      data  from-state      to-state
00000084  20    INACTIVE        WRITE_RECEIVED
00000004  03    WRITE_RECEIVED  WRITE_RECEIVED
00000084  03    WRITE_RECEIVED  READ_PROCESSED
00000001  1c    READ_PROCESSED  READ_PROCESSED
00000001  42    READ_PROCESSED  READ_PROCESSED
00000001  0c    READ_PROCESSED  READ_PROCESSED
00000001  63    READ_PROCESSED  READ_PROCESSED

00000086  20    READ_PROCESSED  WRITE_RECEIVED <= both 3 irqs raised
00000004  02    WRITE_RECEIVED  WRITE_RECEIVED
00000084  03    WRITE_RECEIVED  WRITE_RECEIVED
00000004  18    WRITE_RECEIVED  WRITE_RECEIVED
00000004  42    WRITE_RECEIVED  WRITE_RECEIVED
00000004  0c    WRITE_RECEIVED  WRITE_RECEIVED
00000004  63    WRITE_RECEIVED  WRITE_RECEIVED
00000010  xx    WRITE_RECEIVED  INACTIVE

This patch is to address this case where TX_NAK, SLAVE_MATCH and RX_DONE 
are raised together.
