The actual condition we wait for takes only a few useconds to become
true, but we wait for at least 1ms. As the I2C EEPROM environment
routine reads nearly the complete EEPROM several times during startup
the speed gain is enormous.
I can't recall if it was intentional to reduce the overall timeout with
this patch, but I can imagine that the i2c detect function will be
faster aswell.

Same here.
