I just got a kernel ci report for this one which asks for tags:

Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@xxxxxxxxx>
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/oe-kbuild-all/202609030809.ObirDhR3-lkp@xxxxxxxxx/

It doesn't look to give a useful fixes tag though. I'd go with this as that's where the error was
introduced.

Fixes: f04046f2577a ("arm_mpam: Add probe/remove for mpam msc driver and kbuild boiler plate")

Looks good to me.

Thanks,
