This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
drivers/misc/hpilo: Correct panic when an AUX iLO is detected
to my char-misc git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git
in the char-misc-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.

Subject: drivers/misc/hpilo: Correct panic when an AUX iLO is detected
Using an uninitialized variable 'devnum' after 'goto out;' was causing
panic. Just go ahead and return, we need to ignore AUX iLO devs.
Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP
