Hi Rob,

thanks for the review!

Timeouts are a difficult topic with I2C; there is no timeout defined.
However, if you want to start communictaing and don't have a 'bus idle'
condition, then the new property makes a difference. With
"single-master", we know the bus is stalled. With "multi-master" it
could be another master communicating.

What is your motivation for dual licensing?

All the best,
