No.

Yep, I looked at the exact same code, and you are correct, with

"All invocations of i2c_dw_scl_hcnt() have cond = 0, offset = 0."

Can  you try this out? And if it works may I ask if you send a v2
with some explanation added in U-Boot code, that we sync here with
that what you found in kernel driver?

Many Thanks!
