gcc found a bug:

drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-imx.c:703:7: warning: 'orig_jiffies' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized]
drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-imx.c:672:16: note: 'orig_jiffies' was declared here

And are you sure you want to use
wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout() instead of
wait_for_completion_timeout() here? Unless you confirm you tested it a
lot with signals, I really cannot recommend the *_interruptible_*
version.

Other than that, good. I liked the logfile of what you tested very much!

Thanks,

Wolfram
