Please pull my 3.9 fork, I've developed module to be able to receive I2C events (I2C slave mode, receive only, it always ACK own address) using character device and dumping packets in HEX. Also I've fixed quite few things while doing this, see below. I've

1) (essential)I've replaced fiq_fix_enable with a proper config (CONFIG_USB_FIQ_ENABLED and by default it is Y), because variable checks were missing in quite a few places and it still used local_fiq_disable, in few places which I did not want at all.
2)  (non-essential)I've added special driver (rpi2c) which is replacing bcm2708_gpio.c in arch/arm/mach-bcm2708 folder. This is disabled by default, so you have normal gpio module loaded. In Case you want to receive I2C events (with basic I2C slave support: receive only!) in rpi, then you can enable my module and you can still use i2c-bcm2708.c for master mode. they integrate nicely. Only thing is to add back GPIO functionality on unused GPIO pins (basically copy/paste from bcm2708_gpio.c driver) Also need some thinking how to integrate FIQ handler with remaining GPIO pins, because FIQ currently will receive interrupts form IRQ_GPIO0 and IRQ_GPIO0 is disabled now. Only GPIO1 is enabled and GPIO2 could be enabled also. for RPI this only leaves 3 pins to be able to take adwantage of interrupts (28..31 and one pin is reserved for existing GPIO handler in this driver)
This driver uses trick to hardwire IRQ_GPIO1 with FIQ_GPIO0 so driver will gett notifications on IRQs just after FIQ handler finished, and then it is able to send nitifications about completion of reads for all pending reads. in FIQ you cannot call kernel functions. SO this is one way how to owercome this limitation. Which work very reliably and I had no crashes.

3) (essential) while f**ing alot with making Rpi work with PIC microcontrollers I2C (this time using standard i2c-bcm2708 driver in Master mode) I found issues with related to clock stretching for flash writes (i'm developing bootloader for PIC) . I found that dramatic improvement is to disable bcm2708 clock stretching timeout (writing zero) feature. I've put a kernel param so if someone needs it then he could reenable default timeout of 0x40 cycles. Putting zero solved almost all of isues of marrying PIC and bcm2708 in master mode. And clock stretching works nicely during ACK phase, I've confirmed with oscilloscope.
