[PATCH v3] 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).

To fix this bug, min_low_ns should include fall time and min_high_ns
should include rise time too.

This patch merged the patch that Doug submitted to chromium, which
can get the rise and fall times for signals from the device tree.
This allows us to more accurately calculate timings. see:
