Currently, SynQuacerI2cStartRequest() increases the TPL to TPL_HIGH_LEVEL
while accessing the I2C controller hardware, but fails to restore the TPL
to the original level if the call to SynQuacerI2cMasterStart() fails, and
returns right away. Given the TPL_HIGH_LEVEL implies that interrupts are
disabled, this results in a complete system hang. So instead, break out
of the loop, so that the TPL restore will occur before leaving the
function.

Note that this will result in the bus control bits to be de-asserted in
case of a failure to send the START condition, which is an appropriate
cleanup action to take after SynQuacerI2cMasterStart() fails.

v2: clarify comment and commit log to explain that releasing the bus controls
    is an appropriate action for this failure mode
