We're supposed to be checking that "val_len" is not too large but
instead we check if it is smaller than the max.
The only function affected would be regmap_i2c_smbus_i2c_write() in
drivers/base/regmap/regmap-i2c.c. Strangely that function has its own
limit check which returns an error if (count >= I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX) so
it doesn't look like it has ever been able to do anything except return
an error.
Fixes: c335931ed9d2 ("regmap: Add raw_write/read checks for max_raw_write/read sizes")

This is from code review. I can't test it.
Is it possible that there are other ways to reach
regmap_i2c_smbus_i2c_write() without going through regmap_raw_write()?
In that case, the temptation would be to just remove this check and the
one in regmap_raw_read().
