Before 7f16d0f3b8e2("drm/bridge: anx7625: Propagate errors from
sp_tx_rst_aux()"), edid_read() only returns 0 (i2c read bytes > 0) or
-EIO, so g_edid_break also couldn't be 1. After checking the code
more, I guess what it wants to do is:

- For the 1st and 2nd block (case 0 and 1) in sp_tx_edid_read(), copy
the buffer on success.
- For other blocks (case 2 and 3), process the buffer when the last
g_edid_break updated in previous blocks is not 1. These blocks
probably don't need to be updated if previous blocks have failed. The
whole edid will be checked if valid.

I will update the patch.
