A flag for i2c-messages to allow short time out. Some chips causes time out always with certain kind of operations (like sw-reset commands). There is no point of waiting full timeout in that case. When I2C message is send with I2C_M_SHORT_TIME out flag, adapter is allowed to use shorter timeout and release the bus faster.
