This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
staging: iio: ad7192: Fix - use the dedicated reset function avoiding
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: iio: ad7192: Fix - use the dedicated reset function avoiding
dma from stack.
Depends on: 691c4b95d1 ("iio: ad_sigma_delta: Implement a dedicated reset function")
SPI host drivers can use DMA to transfer data, so the buffer should be properly allocated.
Keeping it on the stack could cause an undefined behavior.
The dedicated reset function solves this issue.
