It is not clear what causes these timeouts. Meanwhile I think that these timeouts are not related to interrupt mode at all. Please try the current HG driver. (Important because timeouts are now logged in poll mode, too.) If it still happens, please replace SAA7146_USE_I2C_IRQ by SAA7146_I2C_SHORT_DELAY in av7110.c. Does it help?
