The firmware has 33868 bytes, and it is split in a few writes. The first one to time out has 20240 bytes:

[   53.398444] cs35l41 0-0040: DSP1: Firmware version: 3
[   53.403522] cs35l41 0-0040: DSP1: cs35l41-dsp1-spk-prot.wmfw: Fri 04 Feb 2022 12:01:42 W. Europe Standard Time
[   55.331688] cdns-i2c e0004000.i2c: timeout waiting on completion
[   55.336721] cs35l41 0-0040: DSP1: cs35l41-dsp1-spk-prot.wmfw.5: Failed to write 20240 bytes at 0 in PM_PACKED: -110

20240 bytes at 100k clock should take 1.6192 seconds, which is more than the current timeout of one second.
