Yes, my first thought too!
This board needs a complete cleanup.

Ok, this part definetely changes behaviour in timing...

Ok...

Hmm.. ARDY bit means:
"""
The current transaction is finished and the module registers
can be accessed.
"""
Seems not to bad to me to check this bit! ... but may missing
on transaction start some prerequisite is missing for triggering
this bit? And so, this additional check only leads in a loop
going into timeout?

Hmm... so the question why does this bit not pop up on transfer
end?
I just can speculate that adding this polling ARDY bit loop
changes the timing... and fixed an underlying bug, yes...
but if this bit never pop up, there must come the printf
"i2c_write: timed out writig last byte!" for each i2c transfer.
Hannes may you can check if this is the case for you?
why does nobody claimed that this message pops up in the last 5 years?
or reverse asked, why does this bit may not pop up for you Pali?
I have not yet time to check this... also I am unsure if I have a hw
where I can try ...
bye,
Heiko
