commit 99ef217e01780668ac21d600eaf4acd3f7666a02

    [media] tda18271: allow restricting max out to 4 bytes

    By default, tda18271 tries to optimize I2C bus by updating all registers
    at the same time. Unfortunately, some devices doesn't support it.

    The current logic has a problem when small_i2c is equal to 8, since
there
    are some transfers using 11 + 1 bytes.

    Fix the problem by enforcing the max size at the right place, and allows
    reducing it to max = 3 + 1.
