Hello Greg,

I've posted an identical patch for udlfb too. Could you consider adding that patch too?

See https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/20/485

Regards,

Subject: video/smscufx: fix line counting in fb_write

From: Alexander Holler <[email protected]>

commit 2fe2d9f47cfe1a3e66e7d087368b3d7155b04c15 upstream.

Line 0 and 1 were both written to line 0 (on the display) and all subsequent
lines had an offset of -1. The result was that the last line on the display
was never overwritten by writes to /dev/fbN.

The origin of this bug seems to have been udlfb.
