This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled devres: fix devres_get() to my driver-core git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core.git in the driver-core-testing 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 be merged to the driver-core-next branch sometime soon, after it passes testing, and the merge window is open. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From 64526370d11ce8868ca495723d595b61e8697fbf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 15 Jul 2015 10:29:00 +0900 Subject: devres: fix devres_get() Currently, devres_get() passes devres_free() the pointer to devres, but devres_free() should be given with the pointer to resource data.
