This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    staging: comedi: adl_pci7x3x: fix digital output on PCI-7230

to my staging git tree which can be found at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git
in the staging-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 staging-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.

Subject: staging: comedi: adl_pci7x3x: fix digital output on PCI-7230

The "adl_pci7x3x" driver replaced the "adl_pci7230" and "adl_pci7432"
drivers in commits 8f567c373c4b ("staging: comedi: new adl_pci7x3x
driver") and 657f77d173d3 ("staging: comedi: remove adl_pci7230 and
adl_pci7432 drivers").  Although the new driver code agrees with the
user manuals for the respective boards, digital outputs stopped working
on the PCI-7230.  This has 16 digital output channels and the previous
adl_pci7230 driver shifted the 16 bit output state left by 16 bits
before writing to the hardware register.  The new adl_pci7x3x driver
doesn't do that.  Fix it in `adl_pci7x3x_do_insn_bits()` by checking
for the special case of the subdevice having only 16 channels and
duplicating the 16 bit output state into both halves of the 32-bit
register.  That should work both for what the board actually does and
for what the user manual says it should do.
