IC guys confirmed that the spec is right:

This an adaptive feature of our I2C module may apply to all IMX chips.
No mistake in the table of RMs.

The divider is designed to guarantee SCL high level and low level last
time. Divider will hold when SCL transition from 1 to 0 or 0 to 1, if
the transition time is longer than 1 internal pre-divided clock cycle.
The pre-divided clock is divided from I2C module clock, used for
generating SCL. So you will see SCL clock cycle is some way longer than
calculated value using IFDR.

Transition time will different from rising or falling edge, different
pull-up resistors, and different SCL loading.

This feature make sure transition time won’t eat both level time of SCL.
Thanks for clarification. Does this mean that this feature is used to
synchronize between the bus clock and and bitclock?

I'll send a documentation patch for this next week to make this clear.

How does this explain why column 2 matched your measurements, but 1, 3, and 4 didn't.
And you tested on 2 different boards.
Something doesn't smell right.

Just my 2cents
