Thanks for your time and reminder.

It seems like the issue has been there since very beginning.(commit: ad7f8a1).
It doesn't introduce user visible bug under my test cases, but this affects the I2C signal
between I2C master and I2C slave. Not pretty sure if there is any eeprom will reset
the written offset once received I2C stop. If so, that might cause wrongly reading EDID.
I will Cc to stable. Thanks.
