It's also already marked for the stable tree inclusion, so after Linus releases a -rc kernel with it in it, the stable kernel developers will be able to pick it up and put it in their kernels. So there's really nothing to do here at the moment, the process will happen automatically. thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
