You are right, it is missing from the cover-letter.

It was there in v1:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-ide/20240618153537.2687621-7-cassel@kernel.org/

"""
This series moves the assignment of ap->print_id, which is used as a
unique id for each port, earlier, such that we can use the ata_port_*
print functions even before the ata_host has been registered.
"""

Will re-add it in v3.


Kind regards,
