Sure does that work!  The waveform was somewhat "streched", mainly due to t=
he delays between some of the writeccr() calls which don't change the sda/s=
cl lines.  Unfortunately I didn't take shots from the scope.

However, for *one* cycle, the old code needed (only counting the udelay's) =
150 us.  For 9 cycles, it's 1.35 ms, which isn't really nice ;-).  At 375 k=
Hz real clock rate, delay_val is 3, i.e. each cycle consumes 9 us, or 81 us=
 for the whole fixup procedure.  If the clock is slower, the gain is of cou=
rse a lot smaller, and at 20.5 kHz each cycle again needs 150 us...

My feeling is that the delays used in the old code are just "some" values w=
hich work for sure, to if you like, my change is basically optimisation...

BTW, related to your earlier question, I checked the timings recorded with =
the scope at 100 and at 20 kHz against the nxp's "I2C bus specification and=
 user manual", rev. 03 - everything seems to be fine.

Thanks, Albrecht.
