Should be:
Fixes: f458ac47 ("ARM/net: ixp4xx: Pass ethernet physical base as
resource").
Thanks,

Thanks for your reply.
I don't know whether the commit message affect this patch's result. If so,
I think the commit message in v2 needs more clarification. As follows:
The function ixp4xx_eth_probe() does not perform sufficient error
checking
after executing devm_ioremap_resource(), which can result in crashes if
a critical
error path is encountered.
Fixes: f458ac479777 ("ARM/net: ixp4xx: Pass ethernet physical base
as resource").
I'm waiting for you reply actively.
Thanks,
Tang Bin
