Since making use of regmap_bulk_write(), this could be further optimized as:

-       regmap_bulk_write(hdmi->regm, PKT_AUDI_CONTENTS1, &buffer[3], 1);
-       regmap_bulk_write(hdmi->regm, PKT_AUDI_CONTENTS2, &buffer[4], 1);
+       regmap_bulk_write(hdmi->regm, PKT_AUDI_CONTENTS1, &buffer[3], 2);
