Just for your convenience an excerpt from
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/i2c.txt

- i2c-scl-falling-time-ns
Number of nanoseconds the SCL signal takes to fall; t(f) in the I2C
specification.

- i2c-scl-internal-delay-ns
Number of nanoseconds the IP core additionally needs to setup SCL.

- i2c-scl-rising-time-ns
Number of nanoseconds the SCL signal takes to rise; t(r) in the I2C
specification.

- i2c-sda-falling-time-ns
Number of nanoseconds the SDA signal takes to fall; t(f) in the I2C
specification.
