This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled ata: pata_arasan_cf: Use dev_err_probe() instead dev_err() in data_xfer() to the 5.15-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: ata-pata_arasan_cf-use-dev_err_probe-instead-dev_err.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.15 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 3f4b1fabda6e9eeda6877e35b62ca37568402ce2 Author: Minjie Du <duminjie@xxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Jul 25 11:06:25 2023 +0800 ata: pata_arasan_cf: Use dev_err_probe() instead dev_err() in data_xfer() [ Upstream commit 4139f992c49356391fb086c0c8ce51f66c26d623 ] It is possible for dma_request_chan() to return EPROBE_DEFER, which means acdev->host->dev is not ready yet. At this point dev_err() will have no output. Use dev_err_probe() instead.
