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-next 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 also be merged in the next major kernel release
during the merge window.
If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

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.
