i2c: mxs: Fix misuse init_completion
The init_completion() call does reinit not only the variable carrying
the flag that the completion finished, but also initialized the
waitqueue associated with the completion. On the contrary, the
INIT_COMPLETION() call only reinits the flag.
In case there was anything still stuck in the waitqueue, subsequent call
to init_completion() would be able to create possible race condition. This
patch uses the proper function and moves init_completion() into .probe() call
of the driver, to be issued only once.
Note that such scenario is impossible, since two threads can never enter the
mxs_i2c_xfer_msg(), since whole this section is protected by mutex in I2C core.
This by no means allows this issue to exit though.
