Could you please explain the issue that you are seeing a bit more?

For me it looks all fine:

$ git log --oneline v4.15-rc1 drivers/video/fbdev/sa1100fb.c
cb6bc3f video: sa1100fb: move pseudo palette into sa1100fb_info structure
0ab7658 video: sa1100fb: fix video memory allocation leak
c244f8e video: sa1100fb: clean up failure path
5634cba video: sa1100fb: use devm_gpio_request_one()
f6fc8c9 video: sa1100fb: use devm_request_irq()
df6b228 video: sa1100fb: use devm_ioremap_resource()
e43064c video: sa1100fb: use devm_clk_get()
ba1d36b video: sa1100fb: use devm_kzalloc()
...
