As reported here
http://www.advamation.com/knowhow/raspberrypi/rpi-i2c-bug.html
the BCM2835 has a bug in its i2c implementation which prevents a correct
clock stretching.

Looking at the driver, we're not setting the REDL/FEDL fields, which are
involved in the delays following clock stretching.  Looks like I2C_DEL's
low 16 bits (rising edge delay) should be I2C_DIV / 4 (wait half the
period for the slave to update its data before we sample it), and the
high 16 bits (falling edge delay) should be I2C_DIV / 16 (put our data
out before we expet the slave to sample the value).

Note: this is not a detailed analysis, nor am I asserting that this is
the bug, just something that we seem to be missing in the Linux driver.

(Added cc to linux-rpi-kernel, in case anyone on that list is interested
in I2C issues on the platform)
