Eh, why not get rid of the 256 byte stack allocation and just replace
all of this by

  dev_info(adev->dev, ""SECUREDISPLAY: I2C buffer out put is: %*ph\n",
TA_SECUREDISPLAY_I2C_BUFFER_SIZE,
securedisplay_cmd->securedisplay_out_message.send_roi_crc.i2c_buf);

That's much less code (both in #LOC and .text), and avoids adding yet
another place that will be audited over and over for "hm, yeah, that
sprintf() is actually not gonna overflow".

Yeah, it'll lose the 0x prefixes for each byte and use lowercase hex chars.
