(The MODULE_AUTHOR() clause should be a good hint...) But it's true that board data for the ux500 kernel use 100000 Hz and I2C_FREQ_MODE_FAST, in the board-mop500.c file, like this: U8500_I2C_CONTROLLER(0, 0xe, 1, 8, 100000, 200, I2C_FREQ_MODE_FAST); U8500_I2C_CONTROLLER(1, 0xe, 1, 8, 100000, 200, I2C_FREQ_MODE_FAST); U8500_I2C_CONTROLLER(2, 0xe, 1, 8, 100000, 200, I2C_FREQ_MODE_FAST); U8500_I2C_CONTROLLER(3, 0xe, 1, 8, 100000, 200, I2C_FREQ_MODE_FAST); This is indeed a bit odd. But obviously it works... But reading some fixes in another tree it seems it should look like this: /* * The board uses 4 i2c controllers, initialize all of * them with slave data setup time of 250 ns, * Tx & Rx FIFO threshold values as 1 and standard * mode of operation */ U8500_I2C_CONTROLLER(0, 0xe, 1, 8, 400000, 200, I2C_FREQ_MODE_FAST); U8500_I2C_CONTROLLER(1, 0xe, 1, 8, 400000, 200, I2C_FREQ_MODE_FAST); U8500_I2C_CONTROLLER(2, 0xe, 1, 8, 400000, 200, I2C_FREQ_MODE_FAST); U8500_I2C_CONTROLLER(3, 0xe, 1, 8, 400000, 200, I2C_FREQ_MODE_FAST); Which makes *much* more sense. I'll cook a separate patch for this or something.
