I'm curious: does new hardware behave differently and that's why you
need v1?  ...or does old and new hardware behave the same and you're
just introducing v1 so you don't mess with how old boards are working?

If the new controller is different, I'd probably reword like the
following (you'd have to re-wordwrap):

There was an timing issue about "repeated start" time at the I2C
controller of version0, controller appears to drop SDA at .875x (7/8)
programmed clk high. On version 1 of the controller, the rule(.875x)
isn't enough to meet tSU;STA
requirements on 100k's Standard-mode. To resolve this issue,
data_upd_st, start_setup_cnt and stop_setup_cnt configs for I2C
timing information are added, new rules are designed to calculate
the timing information at new v1.
