This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
TTY: disable debugging warning
to my tty git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty.git
in the tty-linus branch.
The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)
The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.
If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: TTY: disable debugging warning
We added a warning to flush_to_ldisc to report cases when it is called
with a NULL tty. It was for debugging purposes and it lead to a
patchset from Peter Hurley. The patchset however did not make it to
3.9, so disable the warning now to not disturb people.
We can re-add it when the series is in and we are hunting for another
bugs.
