i2c: piix4: Disable completely the IMC during SMBUS_BLOCK_DATA
SMBUS_BLOCK_DATA transactions might fail due to a race condition with
the IMC (Integrated Micro Controller), even when the IMC semaphore
is used.
This bug has been reported and confirmed by AMD, who suggested as a
solution an IMC firmware upgrade (obtained via BIOS update) and
disabling the IMC during SMBUS_BLOCK_DATA transactions.
Even without the IMC upgrade, the SMBUS is much more stable with this
patch.
Tested on a Bettong-alike board.
