Will change it to 'aspeed,idle-wait-timeout-ms' as it's a non standard
property.

No need. This binding is not a HW description, so not a DT property in
my book. I still don't understand: Your IP core in master mode does not
have a BUSY bit or similar which detects when a START was detected and
clears after a STOP?


Okay, I'll keep this property as it is then.

Sorry for the misunderstanding. I don't think this a property, at all.
It doesn't describe the hardware, it is more of a configuration thing,
or?


You are right. It doesn't describe the hardware but it needs to be
configurable because it very depends on the peer master's behavior.
If peer master sends a long packet usually, it should have a long
timeout value since a slave receiving operation takes long time,
and it should be adjusted with an optimal value with taking some
experiments to make it not too long. Any suggestion?


Should I use timeout in struct i2c_adapter instead just like i2c-mpc
does?
