This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
mei: bus: call mei_cl_read_start under device lock
to my char-misc git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git
in the char-misc-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 char-misc-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: mei: bus: call mei_cl_read_start under device lock
Ensure that mei_cl_read_start is called under the device lock
also in the bus layer. The function updates global ctrl_wr_list
which should be locked.
