i2c: dev: prevent adapter retries and timeout being set as minus value
If adapter->retries is set to a minus value from user space via ioctl, it will make __i2c_transfer and __i2c_smbus_xfer skip the calling to adapter->algo->master_xfer and adapter->algo->smbus_xfer that is registered by the underlying bus drivers, and return value 0 to all the callers. The bus driver will never be accessed anymore by all users, besides, the users may still get successful return value without any error or information log print out. If adapter->timeout is set to minus value from user space via ioctl, it will make the retrying loop in __i2c_transfer and __i2c_smbus_xfer always break after the the first try, due to the time_after always returns true.
