Report from guys who can access scope. If i2c-sda-falling-time-ns=400ns
, HCNT increase to 117, the SCL high duration is 576ns as follows

The original SCL high duration (HCNT = 105, 120MHz) is as follows

So the HCNT does affect but per this HCNT/LCNT value, just not 400kHz
as expected. Any suggestion?
