This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled USB: core: Add hub_get() and hub_put() routines to the 6.8-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: usb-core-add-hub_get-and-hub_put-routines.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.8 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From ee113b860aa169e9a4d2c167c95d0f1961c6e1b8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Stern <stern@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 15 Mar 2024 13:04:50 -0400 Subject: USB: core: Add hub_get() and hub_put() routines From: Alan Stern <stern@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit ee113b860aa169e9a4d2c167c95d0f1961c6e1b8 upstream. Create hub_get() and hub_put() routines to encapsulate the kref_get() and kref_put() calls in hub.c. The new routines will be used by the next patch in this series.
