== SRU Justification ==
The following mainline commit introduced a regression in v4.11-rc1:
c075b6f2d357ea9 ("staging: sm750fb: Replace POKE32 and PEEK32 by inline functions")

This regression caused the bug reporters system to crash and exhibited no display 
output. This bug affects several end users. 

A "Reverse" bisect was performed and it was found that this regression is 
fixed by commit 16808dcf605e6, which was added to mainline in v4.15-rc1.
    

== Fix ==
commit 16808dcf605e6302319a8c3266789b76d4c0983b

    staging: sm750fb: Fix parameter mistake in poke32

== Regression Potential ==
Low.  This patch fixes a current regression.  It was cc'd to upstream stable
so had additional upstream review.

== Test Case ==
A test kernel was built with this patch and tested by the original bug reporter.
The bug reporter states the test kernel resolved the bug.
