i2c: at91: fix write transfers by clearing pending interrupt first

In some cases a NACK interrupt may be pending in the Status Register (SR)
as a result of a previous transfer. However at91_do_twi_transfer() did not
read the SR to clear pending interruptions before starting a new transfer.
Hence a NACK interrupt rose as soon as it was enabled again at the I2C
controller level, resulting in a wrong sequence of operations and strange
patterns of behaviour on the I2C bus, such as a clock stretch followed by
a restart of the transfer.

This first issue occurred with both DMA and PIO write transfers.

Also when a NACK error was detected during a PIO write transfer, the
interrupt handler used to wrongly start a new transfer by writing into the
Transmit Holding Register (THR). Then the I2C slave was likely to reply
with a second NACK.

This second issue is fixed in atmel_twi_interrupt() by handling the TXRDY
status bit only if both the TXCOMP and NACK status bits are cleared.

Tested with a at24 eeprom on sama5d36ek board running a linux-4.1-at91
kernel image. Adapted to linux-next.

* is likely to reply by another NACK.
* Concurrently, this interrupt handler is likely to be called to manage
* the first NACK before the I2C controller detects the second NACK and
* sets once again the NACK bit into the SR.
* When handling the first NACK, this interrupt handler disables the I2C
* controller interruptions, especially the NACK interrupt.
* Hence, the NACK bit is pending into the SR. This is why we should
* read the SR to clear all pending interrupts at the beginning of
* at91_do_twi_transfer() before actually starting a new transfer.

* When a NACK condition is detected, the I2C controller also locks the
