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

    Fix USB CB/CBI storage devices with CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y

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: Fix USB CB/CBI storage devices with CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y

Some code (all error handling) submits CDBs that are allocated
on the stack.  This breaks with CB/CBI code that tries to create
URB directly from SCSI command buffer - which happens to be in
vmalloced memory with vmalloced kernel stacks.

Let's make copy of the command in usb_stor_CB_transport.
