This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
staging: rtl8192e: rtl92e_fill_tx_desc fix write to mapped out
to my staging git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git
in the staging-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: staging: rtl8192e: rtl92e_fill_tx_desc fix write to mapped out
memory.
The driver attempts to alter memory that is mapped to PCI device.
This is because tx_fwinfo_8190pci points to skb->data
Move the pci_map_single to when completed buffer is ready to be mapped with
psdec is empty to drop on mapping error.
