It doesn't apply to 3.9 at all, so it being not really necessary, I'll not include it :) > ff93b19 USB: ti_usb_3410_5052: fix chars_in_buffer overhead > > This should not be applied to v3.9 as the problem it fixes > wasn't introduced until v3.10-rc1. > > It seems you had to add two other patches to get this one to > apply. They should be dropped as well. Ok, I've dropped all 3 of these now. > b16634a USB: io_ti: fix chars_in_buffer overhead > > Needed in 3.9.

No worries, I've dropped the three patches listed above, so we should be all good to go. I'll do a 3.9.6-rc1 release today to get these all out to people to test. 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
