Subject: i2c: i2c-cadence: Initialize configuration before probing devices

From: Mike Looijmans <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 0e1929dedea36781e25902118c93edd8d8f09af1 ]

The cadence I2C driver calls cdns_i2c_writereg(..) to setup a workaround in the controller, but did so after calling i2c_add_adapter() which starts probing devices on the bus. Change the order so that the configuration is completely finished before using the adapter.
