i2c: mxc_i2c: Document how non-DM functions work

Browse source 
It is not very clear how these work in relation to the exact I2C xfers
they produce.  In paticular, the address length is somewhat overloaded
in the read method.  Clearly document the existing behavior.  Maybe this
will help the next person who needs to work on this driver and not break
non-DM boards.

* Read data from I2C device

* S Chip Wr [A] Addr [A] S Chip Rd [A] [data] A ... NA P
* This is a normal I2C register read: writing the register address, then doing
* a repeated start and reading the data.
*
* If alen == 0, then we get this transaction:
* S Chip Wr [A] S Chip Rd [A] [data] A ... NA P
* This is somewhat unusual, though valid, transaction. It addresses the chip
* in write mode, but doesn't actually write any register address or data, then
* does a repeated start and reads data.
*
* If alen < 0, then we get this transaction:
* S Chip Rd [A] [data] A ... NA P
* The chip is addressed in read mode and then data is read. No register
* address is written first. This is perfectly valid on most devices and
* required on some (usually those that don't act like an array of registers).
