Subject: [PATCH 5.18 0796/1095] staging: fbtft: core: set smem_len before fb_deferred_io_init call

From: Peter Suti <peter.suti@...eamunlimited.com>

[ Upstream commit 81e878887ff82a7dd42f22951391069a5d520627 ]

The fbtft_framebuffer_alloc() calls fb_deferred_io_init() before
initializing info->fix.smem_len.  It is set to zero by the
framebuffer_alloc() function.  It will trigger a WARN_ON() at the
start of fb_deferred_io_init() and the function will not do anything.
