The patch sounds like a fix up. Need a "Fixes" tag.

Using the way to pass the parameter "inter_clk_div" to
mtk_i2c_calculate_speed() looks like a hack. inter_clk_div is set
again[1] next to the for loop.

I have no domain knowledge of what/how the patch fixes. But if this
is a standalone fixup patch, suggest separating to an independent
patch.
