Switch the R-Mobile A1, R-Mobile APE6, and SH-Mobile AG5 SoCs to the new
frequency calculation formula, to (a) avoid running the I2C bus too fast,
and (b) bring the low/high ratio closer to the recommended ratio 5/4.

Measurement results on R-Mobile APE6 and SH-Mobile AG5 (fck=104 MHz,
clks_per_count=2):
  100 kHz: 106 kHz LH=1.12 before, 99.6 kHz L/H=1.22 after
  400 kHz: 384 kHz LH=1.67 before, 392 kHz L/H=1.27 after

Measurement results on R-Mobile A1 (fck=49.5 MHz, clks_per_count=1):
  100 kHz: 106 kHz L/H=1.09 before, 99.6 kHz L/H=1.20 after

Measurements after applying "[PATCH 1/3] ARM: dts: renesas: r8a73a4: Fix
external clocks and clock rate"[1].  Before, the clock rates were even
4% higher.

Notes:
  - fast_clock_dt_config is now unused, so I guess we should drop it,
    and rename v2_freq_calc_dt_config to fast_clock_dt_config?
  - The formulas in the documentation for R-Mobile A1 do not include the
    "-1" and "-5", presumably this is for rounding?
  - The formulas in the documentation for SH-Mobile AG5 include
    the "-1" and "-5" in the example for 400 kHz, but not in the example
    for 100 kHz.
  - The SH-Mobile AG5 documentation suggests to use an L/H ratio of 5/3
    instead of 5/4 for 400 kHz, which means the old formula is better
    for 400 kHz?
  - Remaining users of the old formula are sh7343, sh7366, and sh772[234].
    At least for sh772[234], the "Transfer Rate" formula in the
    documentation is the same as for R-Mobile A1.  Hence probably we
    should switch the default_dt_config and the default fallback to the
    "v2" formula, too?
  - I am still a bit puzzled, as the "v2" formula introduced in commit
    4ecfb9d3b229fff5 ("i2c: sh_mobile: add new frequency calculation for
    later SoC") is basically what the driver did before commit
    23a612916a51cc37 ("i2c: i2c-sh_mobile: optimize ICCH/ICCL values
    according to I2C bus speed")?

Looks good to me, and it seems to comply with the datasheets? (I haven't
checked)

Yes, we can (and should do that).

Sounds reasonable. The formulas evolved over time :)

*shrug*

Both ratios are within the I2C specifications for minimum SCL lo/hi
time. 5/3 is a little further away from the minimum requirements, so
maybe a tad more robust. But both should work(tm).

I think we could. But touching old systems without testing and a need is
more risky than leaving them alone.

Interesting. I can't recall that I analyzed the back then existing
formula when I implemented v2. I recall that I used R-Car Gen2
datasheets as the reference. I probably thought those are the "new"
algorithms. I likely didn't have the old datasheets back then. Still,
my memory is not clear about this.

Obvious to say, this I2C core is not used anymore in newer R-Car SoCs.
So, I won't dive too deep into it...

Happy hacking,
