Need to change timeout time for different use
cases to prevent I2C error cases. Open the api
and allow Read/Write permission to write_timeout

IMO this should be a per-chip device property and not a global module
param. Any chance you could maybe try and extend the driver with a new
property for that?

This already is a global module parameter :)
But I agree, having it per-device would be much better, a sysfs
attribute would easily work for that.

I know but if we're touching it, then better do the right thing. :)

I was thinking about a generic device property that could be set from
device tree etc. I doubt there's much need to change this at runtime
outside of development?
