[PATCH v7 6/7] i2c: mediatek: Isolate speed setting via dts for special devices

Hi,

Isn't the new algorithm broken if it cannot support clock stretching?
What was the problem of the old algorithm not meeting the spec?

What I still do not get: the old algorithm was able to handle clock
stretching. Why can't you update the new one to handle clock stretching
as well. I might be missing something, but what is it?

Happy hacking,
