For starters I would like to comment that I am sending this fix because this
actually happened in our environment, so this is not some fake AI report,
which I would credit with Reported-by if it was.
Sadly, no panic logs available since it happened long ago and this fix has
been for a while in our code.

Comment invalid, I love how AI ignored literally next line, a bit more code:

That is completely separate issue and fix is not what AI suggets.
Because if we zero rx_q->dma_erx or rx_q->dma_rx, dma_free_coherent() will run
regardless on NULL pointer then. We probably should lock dma_free_coherent()
behind simple NULL check and zero it, but this will be separate patch if so.

Invalid, kfree() does have 'if (unlikely(ZERO_OR_NULL_PTR(object)))' check

"Would this be appropriate to cover same failures in same commit"
- Nah
"[...] in same patchset
- Maybe
