You can clean this up further by removing a couple of the locals, the
conditional and the division:

while(len < msg->tx_len) {
size_t to_write = MIN(msg->tx_len - len, sizeof(remainder));

memcpy(&remainder, msg->tx_buf + len, to_write);
dsi_write(dsi, DSI_GEN_PLD_DATA, remainder);
len += to_write;

...
}
