NAK.
This is a direct violation of PHILIPS I2C-bus Specification v.2.1, section 15.
Namely, you will have LOW period of SCL clock shorter than required 1.3uS.
Therefore, I'm trying to fix the same currently in davinci:
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/483024/

Probably your problem is in board design. I don't think this should be the reason
for the spec-violating code in the upstream Kernel. You have your TI SDK for this.
