[PATCH 2/2] drm/tiny: sharp-memory: avoid transmitting stale TX buffer data

[Tobias Johansson <tobias.johansson@axis.com>]

When only a subset of lines is dirty, the TX buffer sent to the
panel contains stale line data from previous updates, resulting
in visible flickering on the display.

sharp_memory_update_display() transmits the entire TX buffer
regardless of how many lines were updated. Entries written by a
previous larger update linger in the buffer and
are retransmitted on every subsequent smaller update, overwriting
the newly written data with stale content.

Fix sharp_memory_update_display() to transmit only the buffer
entries populated by the current update.
