Subject: [PATCH] ARM: dts: at91: sama5d2: Fix PMERRLOC resource size

PMERRLOC resource size has been shrunk to 0x100, which resulted in
HSMC_ERRLOCx register being truncated to offset x = 21, causing
error correction to fail if more than 22 bit errors where 24 or
32 bit error correction was supported.

Fixes: d9c41bf30cf8 ("ARM: dts: at91: Declare EBI/NAND controllers")

Hello,

What do mean with "has been shrunk"? It was introduced like this for
sama5d2, sama5d3, and sama5d4 in the first place with d9c41bf30cf8c.

FWIW, I had a look in the sama5d2, sama5d3 and sama5d4 series
datasheets, and it seems sama5d2 differs from the two others here.

This landed in 4.13. Is this fix needed for stable then? That would be
4.14, 4.19, 5.4, 5.10, and 5.15, right? Or is this covered by the
fixes tag already?

I meant has been shrunk until now.
I will reword this for better clarity, maybe s/"has been shrunk"/"was set".

Indeed, this patch is for sama5d2 only. sama5d3 and sama5d4 PMERRLOC
registers fit in the 0x100 size, there's no need to update them.

Maybe indirectly. But best would be to add the following line according to
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/stable-kernel-rules.html

Cc: <[email protected]> # 4.14.x
Will add it. Cheers,
