i2c_init is the only function that writes the ifdr register after this 
patch.
This is fine because this register is not affected by a software reset.
If this register were affected by a software reset, then the current code
would not work either, as i2c_imx_start is reading from this register before
trying(and often failing) to set it to the same value.
