Re: [PATCH 2/2] drm/msm/hdmi: add hdmi hdcp support (V2)

There is one issue to use i2c_smbus_XX functions:
i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data has limitation with the maximum count
I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX.
But in function hdmi_hdcp_recv_ksv_fifo, since the downstream ksv_fifo
size will exceed this limitation and must be read in a single transaction,
we can't use this function then.
