The driver uses the FB_DEFAULT_IOMEM_OPS macro in sm750.c to define its
framebuffer operations. This macro references core framebuffer operations
fb_io_read, fb_io_write, and fb_io_mmap. These symbols are defined in
fb_io_fops.c, which is compiled only under CONFIG_FB_IOMEM_FOPS.
Since config FB_SM750 does not currently select FB_IOMEM_FOPS, compiling
the driver on a config that has no other framebuffer drivers enabled
fails with undefined symbol link errors during MODPOST.
Add 'select FB_IOMEM_FOPS' to Kconfig to ensure the driver core helpers
build successfully in all configurations. Keep the select statements
sorted alphabetically.

Does not apply to Greg's staging-testing branch. `FB_IOMEM_FOPS` already exists in Kconfig. Also you need to put a fullname in `Signed-off-by` part. Regards, Ahmet Sezgin Duran
The driver initializes the hardware by casting 'struct init_status *' to
'struct initchip_param *' in ddk750_init_hw(). This is technically
undefined behavior, violates strict-aliasing rules, and is fragile.
Furthermore, 'struct init_status' defines the 'reset_memory' field as a
2-byte 'ushort', while 'struct initchip_param' defines it as a 1-byte
'unsigned char'. On little-endian architectures, reading the low byte
of the ushort happens to evaluate to the correct value (0 or 1) by accident.
However, on big-endian architectures, casting and reading this field
reads the high byte (0x00) instead, causing a silent failure where the
memory controller is never reset.
This endianness layout mismatch was empirically verified using a standalone
test harness (scratch/be_test.c) compiled under a mips-linux-gnu-gcc
cross-compiler and executed under qemu-mips.
Resolve this by removing the duplicate 'struct init_status' entirely and
using 'struct initchip_param' directly. This removes the unsafe pointer
cast and ensures endian-safe hardware initialization.
This change has been compile-tested only. No hardware was available to
verify runtime behavior.
