Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 1 potential issue(s) to consider:

Pre-existing issues:
- [High] Unchecked dereference of `soc` when retrieving `soc->num_supplies` during memory allocation, leading to an immediate kernel panic if `of_device_get_match_data()` returns NULL.

ata: ahci_tegra: remove devm_kcalloc()

This commit combines the allocation for the tegra_ahci_priv structure and
its supplies flexible array into a single allocation to remove the use of
devm_kcalloc().

[Severity: High]
This isn't a bug introduced by this patch, but can of_device_get_match_data()
return NULL if the driver is probed via sysfs bind with driver_override?

If it returns NULL, the immediate dereference of soc->num_supplies in the
struct_size() macro will cause a NULL pointer dereference. While this
vulnerability existed in the codebase before this patch, this patch shifts
the dereference earlier in the probe sequence.

Could a NULL check be added for soc before it is dereferenced?
