Thanks, that makes sense. I tried deleting the if statement and printk()
from ddk750_help.c, and adding the following in lynxfb_pci_probe() after
calling hw_sm750_map() and checking for errors:
if (sm750_dev->revid = 0xfe)
dev_info(&pdev->dev, "found sm750le\n");
The driver compiles, loads and unloads ok with this code.
Does this look correct?

Ed L.
