The comment is unclear, just by reading it, I have no clue what are the units 
for this value. I can guess those would be bytes, but it would be a good idea
to be explicit.

Also, wasn't kernel comment style starting with leading /* , with the text 
starting only on the next line ?

Shouldn't you force-disable the DMA here somehow (like unsetting I2CR_DMAEN 
bit), if it failed or timed out?

Thanks!
