How come "smi" is used for a company with this name?
Why is it not something like SMTC? There's probably some history here
that I am unaware of.

See Documentation/devicetree/bindings/display/sm501fb.txt
The stock ticker is "SIMO", though.

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon_Motion:

"Controllers are marketed under the “SMI” brand,
 enterprise-grade SSDs under the "Shannon Systems" brand.
