Please can you provide the base commit? I am unable to cleanly apply
this patch on commit: 21ef7b1e17d0 (tag: next-20230809, linux-next/master) Add linux-next specific files for 20230809

This is the issue I faced:

➜ patch -p1 < patches/20230810_tony_serial_core_fix_serial_core_port_id_including_multiport_devices.mbx

patching file drivers/tty/serial/serial_base.h
patching file drivers/tty/serial/serial_base_bus.c
Hunk #3 FAILED at 145.
1 out of 4 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file
drivers/tty/serial/serial_base_bus.c.rej

Perhaps this patch needs a rebase?
