Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 2 potential issue(s) 
to consider:
- [High] The calculation of `bit_usec` can overflow `size_t` on 32-bit 
architectures for large I2C transfers, leading to drastically reduced timeouts.
- [High] GPI multi-descriptor timeout relies on the maximum single message 
length rather than the total transfer length, causing premature timeouts for 
batched transfers.

i2c: qcom-geni: Add dynamic transfer timeout based on transfer length and 
frequency

This commit replaces the static 1-second timeout for I2C transfers with a
dynamic calculation based on message length and bus frequency. It uses a 10x
safety margin with a 300ms floor, and applies the maximum message length for
batched multi-descriptor transfers.

[Severity: High]
Can this calculation overflow size_t on 32-bit architectures?

Since size_t is 32 bits on 32-bit platforms, the intermediate result of
bit_cnt * USEC_PER_SEC can exceed the 32-bit maximum before the division
takes place.

If a message is larger than 477 bytes, bit_cnt becomes greater than 4293.
Multiplying that by 1,000,000 overflows the 32-bit value, which truncates
the result.

This could lead to drastically reduced timeouts and premature -ETIMEDOUT
failures for large I2C transfers.

[Severity: High]
Does this timeout calculation correctly account for the time required to
transmit all messages in a batched multi-descriptor transfer?

The loop calculates max_len based on the longest single message in the
chain. However, the hardware processes the entire batch of messages
sequentially.

Because DMA_PREP_INTERRUPT is typically only set on the final message
in geni_i2c_gpi(), the completion handler blocks in
wait_for_completion_timeout() while waiting for the entire batch to finish
transmitting.

If a batch contains many messages, the cumulative transmission time might
exceed the 10x safety margin of the single largest message, resulting in a
spurious transfer timeout.
