In theory we could also solve this by detecting (in other parts of the
function) the bad multi-byte read/write operations. That would maybe
be more generic (AKA it would more properly handle random userspace
tools fiddling with i2c-dev) but add complexity to the code.
...possibly a better long-term solution is to just totally stop
emulating a regular i2c adapter when the hardware just doesn't support
that. In theory we could remove the "drm_get_edid()" call in
dw_hdmi_connector_get_modes() and replace it with a direct call to
drm_do_get_edid() if we're using the built-in adapter. Possibly
"tda998x_drv.c" would be a good reference. If we did that, we could
remove all the weird / hacky i2c code in this driver.
Since the bigger cleanup seems like a bit much to ask, I'm OK with
this as a stopgap to at least prevent userspace tools from getting
confused. Thus:
