It could be. Boards that use external i2c pulls should have all the
internal pulls disabled as the pulls get connected in parallel and
the total resistance decreases. And then the i2c signals may not be
up to the spec.

Note that there are internal pulls in the i2c controller, and in the
i2c padconf registers.

The pulls should be enabled based on the board and possibly based
on the board revision.

Seems to be C1/C2/C3 based on the above logs?

I checked on the LDP and it seems to have external pulls for i2c.
I also tested n900 without your fix, and it's failing too. On n900
there are external pulls and all the internal pulls should be
disabled.
