Since commit e1ab9a468e ("i2c: imx: improve the error handling in
i2c_imx_dma_request()") when booting with the DMA driver as module (such
as CONFIG_FSL_EDMA=m) the following endless clk warnings are seen:

This endless clk warnings behaviour is well explained by Andrey Smirnov:
"Allocating DMA after registering I2C adapter can lead to infinite
probing loop, for example, consider the following scenario:
1. i2c_imx_probe() is called and successfully registers an I2C
adapter via i2c_add_numbered_adapter()
2. As a part of i2c_add_numbered_adapter() new I2C slave devices
are added from DT which results in a call to
driver_deferred_probe_trigger()
3. i2c_imx_probe() continues and calls i2c_imx_dma_request() which
due to lack of proper DMA driver returns -EPROBE_DEFER
4. i2c_imx_probe() fails, removes I2C adapter and returns
-EPROBE_DEFER, which places it into deferred probe list
5. Deferred probe work triggered in #2 above kicks in and calls
i2c_imx_probe() again thus bringing us to step #1"
So revert commit e1ab9a468e ("i2c: imx: improve the error handling in
i2c_imx_dma_request()") and restore the old behaviour, in order to
avoid regressions on existing setups.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
