commit 2c78cdc1c06308a59d6ed4145cdba73fdeff8c0d upstream.
We don't need to init HW before every transfer since we know the HW state then. HW init at probe time is enough.
This part got reverted upstream by:

i2c: rcar: fix resume by always initializing registers before transfer
so maybe that should go into stable (4.4 and 4.9 branches) too?
Ben.
While here, add setting the clock register which belongs to init HW. Also, set MDBS bit since not setting it is prohibited according to the manual.
