In linux-stable-5.15.13, this file has been removed and combined
to `drivers/ata/pata_platform.c` without this bug.
But in the older LTS kernels, like 5.10.90, this bug still exists.
As the possible failure of the devres_alloc(), the devm_ioremap() and
devm_ioport_map() may return NULL pointer.
And then, the 'base' and 'alt_base' are used in plat_ide_setup_ports().
Therefore, it should be better to add the check in order to avoid the
dereference of the NULL pointer.
Actually, it introduced the bug from commit 8cb1f567f4c0
("ide: Platform IDE driver") and we can know from the commit message
that it tended to be similar to the `drivers/ata/pata_platform.c`.
But actually, even the first time pata_platform was built,
commit a20c9e820864 ("[PATCH] ata: Generic platform_device libata driver"),
there was no the bug, as there was a check after the ioremap().
So possibly the bug was caused by ide itself.
Fixes: 8cb1f567f4c0 ("ide: Platform IDE driver")

Hello,
We ran automated tests on a recent commit from this kernel tree:
Kernel repo: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable-rc.git
Commit: d7b607ed9408 - net: ena: Fix error handling when calculating max IO queues number
The results of these automated tests are provided below.
Overall result: PASSED
Merge: OK
Compile: OK
Tests: OK
Targeted tests: NO

💚 Pull requests are welcome for new tests or improvements to existing tests!
Aborted tests
-------------
Tests that didn't complete running successfully are marked with ⚡⚡⚡.
If this was caused by an infrastructure issue, we try to mark that
explicitly in the report.
Waived tests
------------
If the test run included waived tests, they are marked with 🚧. Such tests are
executed but their results are not taken into account. Tests are waived when
their results are not reliable enough, e.g. when they're just introduced or are
being fixed.
Testing timeout
---------------
We aim to provide a report within reasonable timeframe. Tests that haven't
finished running yet are marked with ⏱.
Targeted tests
--------------
Test runs for patches always include a set of base tests, plus some
tests chosen based on the file paths modified by the patch. The latter
are called "targeted tests". If no targeted tests are run, that means
no patch-specific tests are available. Please, consider contributing a
targeted test for related patches to increase test coverage. See
https://docs.engineering.redhat.com/x/_wEZB for more details.
The patch titled
Subject: usercopy: do not fail on memory from former init sections
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
usercopy-do-not-fail-on-memory-from-former-init-sections.patch
This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged
------------------------------------------------------
From: Helge Deller <deller(a)gmx.de>
Subject: usercopy: do not fail on memory from former init sections
On some platforms the memory area between the _stext and the _etext
symbols includes the init sections (parisc and csky). If the init
sections are freed after bootup, the kernel may reuse this memory.
In one test the usercopy checks if the given address is inside the .text
section (from _stext to _etext), and it wrongly fails on the mentioned
platforms if the memory is from the former init section.
Fix this failure by first checking against the init sections before
checking against the _stext/_etext section.
