The benefit of DUTY=1 is (I think) that you can reach 400 kHz also with
lower parent frequencies. And so it't probably sensible to make use of
it unconditionally for fast mode.

No, don't add a property to the device tree. Just take pencil and paper
and think a while about the right algorithm to choose the right register
settings.

If I compile
-------->8--------
#include <stdio.h>
void myfunc(unsigned freq)
{
unsigned trise = freq * 300 / 1000 + 1;
printf("trise = %u", trise);
}
-------->8--------
for arm with -O3 I get:
00000000 <myfunc>:
0: e3a01f4b mov r1, #300 ; 0x12c
4: e0010190 mul r1, r0, r1
8: e59f3010 ldr r3, [pc, #16] ; 20 <myfunc+0x20>
c: e59f0010 ldr r0, [pc, #16] ; 24 <myfunc+0x24>
10: e0812193 umull r2, r1, r3, r1
14: e1a01321 lsr r1, r1, #6
18: e2811001 add r1, r1, #1
1c: eafffffe b 0 <printf>
20: 10624dd3 .word 0x10624dd3
24: 00000000 .word 0x00000000
The mul instruction at offset 4 writes the least significant 32 bits of
300 * r0 to r1 and so doesn't handle overflow correctly.

You need to comment the check for the length, something like:
/*
* To end the transfer correctly the foo bit has to be cleared
* already on the last but one byte to be transferred.
*/
and bonus points if you can shrink the number of functions that check
for this stuff.

Ok, if you really need possible_status.

Is it possible to make it more obvious by doing:
status = read_from_status_register() & read_from_interrupt_enable_register();
at a single place?

The the "first" in the comment for __fls is misleading. Also do:
if (status & MOST_IMPORTANT_ERROR) {
...
}
if (status & SECOND_MOST_IMPORTANT_ERROR) {
...
}
(if you need including possible_status stuff).
