The reason I commented on this patch is because all the discussion so 
far was surrounding the PP_BLK_DITHER macro which was being touched in 
this patch.

So even now, we found out about sm8450 and sm8550 because of the 
question that why sm8550 alone should use PP_BLK_DITHER and not sm8450.

This patch led to all the discussion about PP_BLK_DITHER.

Even though it was just a typo fix patch, it uncovered deeper issues in 
catalog about why PP_BLK_DITHER wasnt used more often.
