32K is the max for all implementations?

BTW, Where does the "2000000" come from?  Shouldn't it be 1000000 if =20
you're converting to usec?  If you're trying to add some slack, say so =20
rather than having a comment suggest that the output of that formula is =20
64K cycles.  Or is there an implicit assumption that i2c runs at half =20
the system frequency?  Is that assumption true for all implementations =20
that have this erratum?

Yes, and Wolfram Sang <wsa@the-dreams•de> is the maintainer.  This is =20
listed in the MAINTAINERS file.
