[PATCH] i2c: rk3x: fix potential spinlock recursion on poll

Possible deadlock scenario (on reboot):
rk3x_i2c_xfer_common(polling)
    -> rk3x_i2c_wait_xfer_poll()
        -> rk3x_i2c_irq(0, i2c);
            --> spin_lock(&i2c->lock);
            ...
        <rk3x i2c interrupt>
        -> rk3x_i2c_irq(0, i2c);
            --> spin_lock(&i2c->lock); (deadlock here)

Store the IRQ number and disable/enable it around the polling transfer.
This patch has been tested on NanoPC-T4.
