This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
USB: hub: fix non-SS hub-descriptor handling
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: hub: fix non-SS hub-descriptor handling
Add missing sanity check on the non-SuperSpeed hub-descriptor length in
order to avoid parsing and leaking two bytes of uninitialised slab data
through sysfs removable-attributes (or a compound-device debug
statement).
Note that we only make sure that the DeviceRemovable field is always
present (and specifically ignore the unused PortPwrCtrlMask field) in
order to continue support any hubs with non-compliant descriptors. As a
further safeguard, the descriptor buffer is also cleared.
