Wait, those are actually different instances of the I2C controller, so
the relevant log entries are these:

[ 0.945445] tegra-i2c 7000d000.i2c: starting DMA for length: 16
[ 0.945456] tegra-i2c 7000d000.i2c: unmasked irq: 0c
...
[ 1.049224] tegra-i2c 7000d000.i2c: i2c transfer timed out

And these don't happen if you use higher burst sizes or before the DMA
series?
