[PATCH] i2c: rk3x: fix bug that cause measured high_ns doesn't meet I2C spec

high_ns calculated from the low division of CLKDIV register is the sum of
actual measured high_ns and rise_ns. The rise time which related to
external pull-up resistor can be up to the maximum rise time in I2C spec.

In my test, if external pull-up resistor is 4.7K, rise_ns is about 700ns.
So the actual measured high_ns is about 3900ns, which is less than 4000ns
(the minimum high_ns in I2C spec).
