This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
serial: core: fix crash in uart_suspend_port
to my tty git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty.git
in the tty-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: serial: core: fix crash in uart_suspend_port
With serdev we might end up with serial ports that have no cdev exported
to userspace, as they are used as the bus interface to other devices. In
that case serial_match_port() won't be able to find a matching tty_dev.
Skip the irq wakeup enabling in that case, as serdev will make sure to
keep the port active, as long as there are devices depending on it.
Fixes: 8ee3fde04758 (tty_port: register tty ports with serdev bus)
