i2c-dev: Clarify the unit of ioctl I2C_TIMEOUT



The unit in which user-space can set the bus timeout value is jiffies
for historical reasons (back when HZ was always 100.) This is however
not good because user-space doesn't know how long a jiffy lasts. The
timeout value should instead be set in a fixed time unit. Given the
original value of HZ, this unit should be 10 ms, for compatibility.
