If device does not support that, maybe there is some special flag, which 
device driver can pass to i2c_master_xfer?

Hi Darius,

No, there isn't. If a given I2C device doesn't support repeated start,
then its driver should simply run only single-message transactions.
That is, only use i2c_master_send() and i2c_master_recv(), or for SMBus
compatibility, i2c_smbus_read_byte() and i2c_smbus_write_*().

There is also a flag, I2C_M_NOSTART, that can keep the repeated start from
being sent.  Though this is probably not what you want, as you probably
want to insert a stop instead of remove the start.
