I've considered this, and in the end I think it's better to *not* make
it easier for drivers to modify the ELD buffer directly.

To that end, I wrote some helpers to modify the SADs using the existing
struct cea_sad abstraction [1]. Please have a look. It should make your
changes better focus on what you need to do here, instead of getting
distracted with ELD parsing details.
