James looked at an earlier version and said it was ok, and suggested a few changes. This has been tested against 2.6.14-rc2 on a Katana. Note that the bus_clk value from the platform information seems to be in MHZ, but the actual frequency is generally 133,333,333, not 133,000,000. I don't think the inaccuracy matters here, but it seems a little odd.Yes, it makes more sense to me to pass the actual frequency and not do the '* 1000000'.The only trouble is if you go over 4GHZ... Maybe it should be in KHZ instead of MHZ? or 64-bits? Or maybe we don't worry about >4GHZ busses? Also, how would one go about changing this? Would you need something like: if (bus_clk < 1000) bus_clk *= 1000000 for backwards compatability?
Hey, don't touch the i2c! ;-)

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
