Will squash 47 into 45 in v3.

Sorry about 46: it only touches drivers/mfd/ioc3.c and 
arch/mips/include/asm/sn/ioc4.h, so get_maintainer left linux-ide off it. 
It adds the IOC4 ATA/ATAPI MFD cell that pata_sgiioc4 binds to:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/754bae380c938b63eeaa87e3dccf9755314675ed.1791890466.git.kaloz@kernel.org/
v3 will copy you and linux-ide on it.

As for merging: pata_sgiioc4 depends on the IOC4 support added earlier in 
the series (asm/sn/ioc4.h and the MFD cell), so I’d like it to go through 
the MIPS tree with your ack, if that works for you.


Best,
Imre
