Make the I2C adapter timeout configurable through a Device Tree property which

My understanding is that software properties should not be defined via the 
device tree. I think a sysfs entry is more appropriate.

Is the timeout really a /software/ property?  My feeling is that the timeout 
basically depends upon the bus clock and the chips attached to the bus.  
Therefore, it is linked closer to the composition of the board's hardware as 
described in the device tree, than to any userland software.  Or am I totally 
wrong here?

Thanks, Albrecht.
