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-next 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 also be merged in the next major kernel release during the merge window. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From 5182c2cf2a9bfb7f066ef0bdd2bb6330b94dd74e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 9 Feb 2017 12:11:41 +0100 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.
