If you safeguard the function, it would make sense to do this at the
very beginning of the function. But to be honest, I think this is just
extra. It's a static function, named "hdmi", so I think we can trust
that we call it correctly.

If you're ok with it, I can pick this patch up and drop the safeguard.
Or you can send a new one.
