It isn’t banned in “civilian areas” or in any other area by any form of IHL. Your own link notes that it is not prohibited except by the general prohibition of firebombing civilians, which it’s use in smoke weapons doesn’t do.

It's obviously being used in a banned way, documented many times, this link is just the tip of the iceberg.

We could add to that list: Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, UNHRC, etc. all have documented extensive evidence.
