This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
xhci: Fix memory leak in xhci_pme_acpi_rtd3_enable()
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: xhci: Fix memory leak in xhci_pme_acpi_rtd3_enable()
There is a memory leak because acpi_evaluate_dsm() actually returns an
object which the caller is supposed to release. Fix this by calling
ACPI_FREE() for the returned object (this expands to kfree() so passing
NULL there is fine as well).
While there correct indentation in !CONFIG_ACPI case.
