i2c: qcom-geni: Use common GENI resource initialization helper

This commit replaces a custom resource initialization callback with
geni_se_resources_init(). It moves clock frequency validation and ICC
bandwidth vote programming to probe and qcom_geni_i2c_conf() respectively.

[Severity: High]
Could this introduce severe lock contention?

The geni_i2c_xfer() handler invokes this configuration function on every batch
of messages. Moving geni_icc_set_bw_ab() into qcom_geni_i2c_conf() means
icc_set_bw() is now called on every I2C transfer.

Because icc_set_bw() unconditionally acquires the global icc_bw_lock mutex
and iterates through interconnect nodes, will this rapidly acquire and
release a global interconnect lock during normal I2C operations, throttling
the rest of the system?

[Severity: High]
Does moving geni_i2c_clk_map_idx() after geni_i2c_init() leave gi2c->src_freq
uninitialized when hardware is first accessed?

When geni_i2c_init() calls pm_runtime_resume_and_get(), it triggers
geni_i2c_runtime_resume() which checks gi2c->src_freq:

	if (gi2c->src_freq) {
		ret = dev_pm_opp_set_rate(dev, gi2c->src_freq);
		if (ret)
			return ret;
	}

Because gi2c->src_freq is 0 at this point, the OPP performance state vote is
silently bypassed. geni_i2c_init() then immediately accesses hardware registers.
On Qualcomm platforms, could this un-voted access result in a NoC timeout or
system crash?

[Severity: Medium]
Does this path leak the GPI DMA channels?

geni_i2c_init() allocates RX and TX channels via setup_gpi_dma() when the
device is in GPI mode. When geni_i2c_clk_map_idx() fails here, we return
the error directly without calling release_gpi_dma() to clean up the
allocated channels, unlike the i2c_add_adapter() error path directly below it.
