There's no generic API to read or change the bus speed (SCL frequency)
for I2C adapters, so it's impossible to calculate a limit on the MCLK
divider automatically.

Defaulting to 1 is always safe, but means wasting power at lower sample
rates. If you know what the bus speed is you can use a higher divider
limit to save power, and it has to be done at the board/firmware level
because that's the only place where the bus speed is known.

Everything else agreed, I'll send v2 later today.
