This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
USB: usbtmc: fix probe error path
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: usbtmc: fix probe error path
Make sure to initialise the return value to avoid having allocation
failures going unnoticed when allocating interrupt-endpoint resources.
This prevents use-after-free or worse when the device is later unbound.
Fixes: dbf3e7f654c0 ("Implement an ioctl to support the USMTMC-USB488 READ_STATUS_BYTE operation.")
