      I2C access errors is not restricted to J721E but also applicable to J7200. The workaround consists of avoiding any I2C access from EthFw while an QNX/Linux is running on A72.

      EthFw server apps gets stuck in I2C functions when EthFw is either trying to detect if GESI board is present or reading MAC addresses from EEPROM.

      This happens when running with Linux boot flow.
      I2C accesses should be streamlined to avoid conflicts.
