If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit eb3b81ebc6e21ee1490ef5ce6d7fd27bc9896dd4 Author: Michael Ellerman <mpe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Aug 20 13:04:07 2024 +1000 ata: pata_macio: Use WARN instead of BUG [ Upstream commit d4bc0a264fb482b019c84fbc7202dd3cab059087 ] The overflow/underflow conditions in pata_macio_qc_prep() should never happen. But if they do there's no need to kill the system entirely, a WARN and failing the IO request should be sufficient and might allow the system to keep running.
