Wow, that code is absolutely terrible.

So even while _DSD device properties require vendor prefixes, which
are lacking in this case, and the fact that the ACPI flavor of the
Designware I2C controller now provides two different ways to get the
timing parameters (using device properties or using SSCN/FMCN/etc ACPI
methods), you think this is a shining example of how this should be
implemented?

Also, I still think implementing a clock device using rate X just to
interrogate it for its rate (returning X) is absolutely pointless.

So what I can do is invent an ACPI method that returns the PCLK rate.
Would that work for you?

As for the max I2C speed: I think that looks sane, so I can
incorporate that as well.
