The full block would become:

static bool nmk_i2c_wait_xfer_done(struct nmk_i2c_dev *priv)
{
	if (priv->timeout_usecs < jiffies_to_usecs(1)) {
		unsigned long timeout_usecs = priv->timeout_usecs;
		ktime_t timeout = ktime_set(0, timeout_usecs * NSEC_PER_USEC);

		return !wait_event_hrtimeout(priv->xfer_wq, priv->xfer_done,
					     timeout);
	}

	return wait_event_timeout(priv->xfer_wq, priv->xfer_done,
				  usecs_to_jiffies(priv->timeout_usecs));
}

Three things:

 - Deindenting the jiffy timeout case means no variable declaration
   after the if-block. This is fine from my point-of-view.

 - It means we depend on the half-mess that are return values from
   wait_event_*timeout() macros. I wanted to avoid that because it
   looks like an error when you read the above code and see one is
   negated while the other is not.

 - Also, I'm not confident in casting either return value to bool; what
   happens if either macro returns an error? This is a theoretical case
   that shouldn't happen, but behavior might change at some point or
   bugs could occur. We know priv->xfer_done will give us the right
   answer.

My preference still goes to the original version, but I'm happy we are
having a discussion about this code block.
