I suggest to improve this change description.
How did you determine relevant differences for the mentioned chip model?

Will another imperative wording become helpful here?

How do you think about to use descriptive identifiers for
the shown constants?

Would you like to clarify any related software analysis approaches?

Read and check its codes。

smtcfb_pci_probe() --> smtc_map_smem()

smtcfb_pci_probe()
switch (sfb->chip_id) {
        case 0x710:
        case 0x712:
		sfb->lfb = ioremap(mmio_base, mmio_addr);
	case 0x720:
		sfb->dp_regs = ioremap(mmio_base, 0x00200000 + smem_size);
                sfb->lfb = sfb->dp_regs + 0x00200000;
	}
smtc_map_smem()
	sfb->fb->screen_base = sfb->lfb;


smtcfb_pci_remove() --> smtc_unmap_smem()

smtc_unmap_smem()
	iounmap(sfb->fb->screen_base);

yes, this is why need to change this code.

These two constants are originally in the driver, I don't know enough
about its meaning, There are a lot of constants in this driver. If I
replace it with the macro, I worry that the name of the macro may not
be accurate.

just read coedes and check it.
