In commit 35eba185fd1a ("i2c: designware: Calculate SCL timing parameter
for High Speed Mode") the SCL high period count and low period count for
high speed mode are calculated based on fixed tHIGH = 160 and tLOW = 120.
However, the set of two fixed values is only applicable to the combination
of hardware parameters IC_CAP_LOADING is 400 and IC_CLK_FREQ_OPTIMIZATION
is true. Outside of this combination, the SCL frequency may not reach
3.4 MHz because the fixed tHIGH and tLOW are not small enough.

If IC_CAP_LOADING is 400, it means the bus capacitance is 400pF;
Otherwise, 100 pF. If IC_CLK_FREQ_OPTIMIZATION is true, it means that the
hardware reduces its internal clock frequency by reducing the internal
latency required to generate the high period and low period of the SCL line.

Section 3.15.4.5 in DesignWare DW_apb_i2b Databook v2.03 says that when
IC_CLK_FREQ_OPTIMIZATION = 0,

     MIN_SCL_HIGHtime = 60 ns for 3.4 Mbps, bus loading = 100pF
		     = 120 ns for 3.4 Mbps, bus loading = 400pF
     MIN_SCL_LOWtime = 160 ns for 3.4 Mbps, bus loading = 100pF
		    = 320 ns for 3.4 Mbps, bus loading = 400pF

and section 3.15.4.6 says that when IC_CLK_FREQ_OPTIMIZATION = 1,

     MIN_SCL_HIGHtime = 60 ns for 3.4 Mbps, bus loading = 100pF
		     = 160 ns for 3.4 Mbps, bus loading = 400pF
     MIN_SCL_LOWtime = 120 ns for 3.4 Mbps, bus loading = 100pF
		    = 320 ns for 3.4 Mbps, bus loading = 400pF

In order to calculate more accurate SCL high period count and low period
count for high speed mode, two hardware parameters IC_CAP_LOADING and
IC_CLK_FREQ_OPTIMIZATION must be considered together. Since there're no
registers controlliing these these two hardware parameters, users can
declare them in the device tree so that the driver can obtain them.

As long as DT schema (new properties) is accepted, this LGTM now,
