Unlikely. The ADT7460 can run at I2C clock rates up to 400 kHz while
the Keywest I2C runs at 25, 50 or 100 kHz if I read the code properly.
I don't know what exact speed is used on Tim's system, apparently it is
read from the hardware in the device tree directly?

We could have low_i2c.c log the I2C clock frequency and/or try to force
the lowest speed (25 kHz) and see if it helps, but I very much doubt
it. And I'd rather wait for Tim to report the result with my last patch
first.
