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

    USB: serial: mos7840: fix another 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-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 usb-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: USB: serial: mos7840: fix another NULL-deref at open

Fix another NULL-pointer dereference at open should a malicious device
lack an interrupt-in endpoint.

Note that the driver has a broken check for an interrupt-in endpoint
which means that an interrupt URB has never even been submitted.
