In NACK error condition, I2C controller violates clock-to-data setup 
time before stop. In Software, because of this reset of controller is 
happening before I2C controller could complete STOP condition.

Added delay of 2 clock period before reset the controller in case of 
NACK error.

Instead of setting constant value for delay as was in previous patch, 
now in the current modification delay will be calculated based on clock frequency of the bus.

Why do you need to reset the controller in case of a NACK.
This is required because of hardware limitations. Without reset we can't flus the internal hardware registers.
