Correct.

Oh yeah. If a short reply happens and it is aux over i2c then
drm_dp_i2c_msg_write_status_update() is called and
DP_AUX_I2C_WRITE_STATUS_UPDATE is set and then we try a transfer again.
We need to handle that type of request in this ti_sn_aux_transfer()
function.

Yes, just code inspection. I can add that detail to the commit text.
