That's bullshit. Do you see a stable tag? Is 5.19-stable still active?
The problem is that the driver was updated before the binding was so the
above mentioned probe error has been there since this file was merged.
AUTOSEL is crazy and people apparently just ignore it instead of NAKing
when it is suggesting backporting devicetree cleanups (which to be fair
should generally not have Fixes tags in the first place).
If 5.19-stable was still active and someone suggested backporting this
one, they would have to change the compatible string to match the
inconsistent 5.19 kernel. Note that that would need to happen regardless
of whether this patch has a Fixes tag or not.
