Sorry I don't understand.
The value you use from the DT and the one calculated from the setup/hold/high/low value
with the algorithm I developed will set the same values.
The main difference is that you won't need the ST tool to calculate these, and even better
you can provide generic binding for whatever APB frequency the I2C peripheral is running
on.

Having the STM32L4 running mainline won't be hard, maybe useless, but not hard.
My point is that you can somehow consider the STM32F0/F1/F4 I2C IP to be "v1" or "gen1",
and the L0/L4/F6 (and H7 ?) to be "v2" or "gen2" then prepend a generic compatible to
have something like :
compatible = "st,stm32-i2c-v2", "st,stm32f7-i2c"
