After we disabled interrupts, there might still be an active one
running. Sync before clearing the pointer to the slave device.

Fixes: c31d0a00021d ("i2c: emev2: add slave support")

Not tested on hardware yet. If someone has the board set up, testing if
standard I2C communication works would be nice. That would mean irq
setup did not regress. The actual race is more complicated to trigger.
If noone has the board, I will fetch it from my repository. It is packed
away currently.

I do have the hardware but similar situation as you, packed away in its 
box. But the box is also packed in a larger box as I'm preparing for the 
move. I'm not sure in what box I put the box in, and I'm not super keen 
to look thru all of them before I unpack them on the other end.

I don't see how this could influence the standard I2C communication at
all. If change in em_i2c_unreg_slave() is excluded, all that was changed
is moving irq number from local variable to the em_i2c_device struct
which is also not used outside of the em_i2c_unreg_slave() appart from
logging :)

Then, if we consider em_i2c_unreg_slave() I also don't see how this
could regres as no locks are being held in this function so calling
synchronize_irq() should be safe.

So from my point of view:

I agree. Still, I do have brown-paper-bag experiences caused by wrong
assumptions like "this cannot fail". And we are changing the way
interrupts are acquired. So, if it is not too hard, I'd prefer to have
patches tested, too. I'd still apply the patch if it turns out to be too
complicated to test (given the reviews raise the trust). Yet, also on
the pro-side, it doesn't hurt to test a newer kernel on a packed-away
system once in a while.

Thanks for the reviews!

Applied to for-current, thanks!
