I don't think this is needed. See below.

The overall code size becomes much bigger when duplicating the code. It makes 
code maintenance harder.

Good question. I don't know what is the common convention in this case. Do you 
have such a need here?

This should be detected automatically in i2c_dw_init(). When ACCESS_16BIT is 
not set, access is 32bit wide. Doesn't it work for you?

These should be encoded in new device-tree properties named "tx-fifo-size", 
and "rx-fifo-size". For example, see 
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/powerpc/4xx/emac.txt.
