So, once per unit per phase, deffskulls can reroll a hit, wound, and damage roll.

Clearly, with smite the first two aren't a factor, but what about damage?

I ask because I think technically, the way mortal wounds are dealt is slightly different than damage, which makes me wonder if I could use the deffskulls trait to reroll it.

"Models with this kultur have a 6+ invulnerable save. In
addition, you can re-roll a single hit roll, a single wound roll
and a single damage roll for each unit with this kultur each time
it shoots or fights."

Since using Smite is neither shooting nor fighting, you cannot reroll the dice.

Ah, thank you, I was paraphrasing the codex, makes sense.

The amount of Mortal Wounds Smite causes is not a Damage Roll.
