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

    USB: serial: pl2303: fix NULL-deref at open

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: serial: pl2303: fix NULL-deref at open

Fix NULL-pointer dereference in open() should a type-0 or type-1 device
lack the expected endpoints:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000030
...
PC is at pl2303_open+0x38/0xec [pl2303]

Note that a missing interrupt-in endpoint would have caused open() to
fail.
