This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
usb: return error code when platform_get_irq fails
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: usb: return error code when platform_get_irq fails
In function xhci_mtk_probe(), variable ret takes the return value. Its
value should be negative on failures. However, when the call to function
platform_get_irq() fails, it does not set the error code, and 0 will be
returned. 0 indicates no error. As a result, the callers of function
xhci_mtk_probe() will not be able to detect the error. This patch fixes
the bug by assigning the return value of platform_get_irq() to variable
ret if it fails.
