sure, all review comments are welcome.

I have in mind that Philipp asked to add an update to documentation, the
next version will contain the fixes.

Accepted. I don't know what are the exact divisors of master clock for
fast and standard modes, for reference I'll make a simple performance
test and publish its results. I expect that in standard mode SCL is
about 100KHz and in fast mode SCL is about 400KHz, and, if in standard
mode SCL is less than 100KHz, it will take more than 50ms to read out
512 bytes of data, which might be not acceptable from performance
perspective.

It makes sense for me.

I think it is resourse wasteful, especially since it does not solve any
actual problem, if I understand your arguments correctly.

I'd like to see the I2C bus registered even if there is no ongoing
transfer, for instance running "modprobe i2c-dev; i2cdetect -l".

For information I notice that there is a movement of I2C bus
configuration/capture from bind() to probe() in DRM drivers, e.g. see
commit 53bdcf5f026c .

I don't know, may be the shared part of the driver should export a
reset() function for RK3288, if it (or its next version) helps?

Unlickily I don't possess an RK3288 power board, but in any case I would
appreciate, if you share your test, I'll try to reproduce the same
problem on iMX6.

At the moment I am inclided to preserve I2C bus registration in bind()
