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.
