Public bug reported:

SRU Justification

[Impact]
The timeout value in i2c-designware is hardcoded. Userspace tool may want to 
change the timeout value via ioctl I2C_TIMEOUT, but it doesn't work for 
i2c-designware.

[Test Case]
Change the timeout value via ioctl I2C_TIMEOUT. Nothing happened.
With the patch, timeout value for i2c-designware will be updated correctly.

[Regression Potential]
Minimal. The change only applies to a specific driver, i2c-designware. Also, it 
has minimal code change.
