So we're already (partially) processing this a bit later on line 287:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-aspeed.c?h=v6.7-rc3#n287

From the description of the problem in the commit message it sounds
like the ordering of the interrupt processing is incorrect. Prior to
this patch we have the following abstract ordering of interrupt
processing:

1. Process ASPEED_I2CD_INTR_SLAVE_MATCH
2. Process ASPEED_I2CD_INTR_TX_NAK when in ASPEED_I2C_SLAVE_READ_PROCESSED

With this patch we have:

1. If ASPEED_I2CD_INTR_SLAVE_MATCH then process ASPEED_I2CD_INTR_TX_NAK when in ASPEED_I2C_SLAVE_READ_PROCESSED
2. Process ASPEED_I2CD_INTR_SLAVE_MATCH
3. Process ASPEED_I2CD_INTR_TX_NAK when in ASPEED_I2C_SLAVE_READ_PROCESSED

That feels a bit complex and redundant. What I think we can have is:

1. Process ASPEED_I2CD_INTR_TX_NAK when in ASPEED_I2C_SLAVE_READ_PROCESSED
1. Process ASPEED_I2CD_INTR_SLAVE_MATCH

Moving back from the abstract to the concrete, implementing what I
believe we need would look something like this patch:

Thoughts? I haven't tested it, it's just something to throw darts at.
