Actually, the bug first appeared long ago.  This commit:
  1bb1a117878b9 ("net: ipa: add IPA v3.1 configuration data")
marked IPA v3.1 supported.  But it did not update the code
to avoid accessing the IDLE_INDICATION register for IPA v3.1
(in ipa_reg_idle_indication_cfg_offset()).  That being said,
we have no evidence that it caused harm, and until we do I'd
rather not try to fix the problem that far back.

The commit you point out is the one where we actually
start checking (and WARNing), and I think it's reasonable
to say that's what this fixes.

I would very much like to get a Tested-by tag.

But from my perspective, this patch looks good.  Previously
offset 0x220 was used, even though it was not well-defined
for IPA v3.1.

This is a bug fix destined for the net/master branch.
