This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
USB: oti6858: fix use-after-free in TIOCMIWAIT
to my usb git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git
in the usb-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: USB: oti6858: fix use-after-free in TIOCMIWAIT
Use the port wait queue and make sure to check the serial disconnected
flag before accessing private port data after waking up.
This is is needed as the private port data (including the wait queue
itself) can be gone when waking up after a disconnect.
