i2c: at91: Fix a race condition during signal handling in at91_do_twi_xfer.

There is a race condition in at91_do_twi_xfer when signals arrive.
If a signal is recieved while waiting for a transfer to complete
wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout() will return -ERESTARTSYS.
This is not handled correctly resulting in interrupts still being
enabled and a transfer being in flight when we return.

Symptoms include a range of oopses and bus lockups. Oopses can happen
when the transfer completes because the interrupt handler will corrupt
the stack. If a new transfer is started before the interrupt fires
the controller will start a new transfer in the middle of the old one,
resulting in confused slaves and a locked bus.

To avoid this, use wait_for_completion_io_timeout instead so that we
don't have to deal with gracefully shutting down the transfer and
disabling the interrupts.
