The register at poweron contains 0x40, which at our typical 100khz bus
rate means .64ms instead of the desired 25ms.

Fixes many clock stretching timeouts when talking to the DSI panel's
bridge chip, and will hopefully fix talking to the FXL6408 GPIO
expander on the Pi3 as well.

could we really assume that the clk rate never change after driver probing?

This also affects Gerd's patch [PATCH 28/32] i2c: bcm2835: Set up the
rising/falling edge delays.

The I2C_DIV register setup you see in this hunk is what is producing the
SCL clock, so this code is in the right place.  If we need to add
switching of bus rates at runtime then we'd have to move all of it,
which would be a separate change.

SMBus has that timeout, but I2C doesn't. How about disabling the timeout
simply? Or using the max value if you want to keep the timeout
detection?

Disabling the timeout seems fine to me.  We still have a 1-second
timeout around the entire transfer.  I'll be back on my DSI branch this
week and test it out then.

Did it work?

Sorry for the long-delayed feedback: It turned out that the reason I was
getting timeouts and looking into i2c in the first place was that the
firmware was driving that controller behind my back, so I couldn't do
useful testing anyway.

I put together a patch
(https://github.com/anholt/linux/commit/894200276239d2e4c60b378bdc52164fcb13af8d)
but I'm a bit concerned by it: I don't see a way to get the controller
back to its idle state without continuing through the I2C state machine,
and if the clock is still being stretched it doesn't continue unless CLK
is triggered.

What is supposed to happen when adap->timeout times out while the clock
is being stretched?  Should we be able to try starting a fresh new I2C
transaction cleanly?
