This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
USB: serial: metro-usb: stop I/O after failed open
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-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: USB: serial: metro-usb: stop I/O after failed open
Make sure to kill the interrupt-in URB after a failed open request.
Apart from saving power (and avoiding stale input after a later
successful open), this also prevents a NULL-deref in the completion
handler if the port is manually unbound.
