This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
xhci: Fix NULL pointer in xhci debugfs
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: xhci: Fix NULL pointer in xhci debugfs
Commit dde634057da7 ("xhci: Fix use-after-free in xhci debugfs") causes a
null pointer dereference while fixing xhci-debugfs usage of ring pointers
that were freed during hibernate.
The fix passed addresses to ring pointers instead, but forgot to do this
change for the xhci_ring_trb_show function.
The address of the ring pointer passed to xhci-debugfs was of a temporary
ring pointer "new_ring" instead of the actual ring "ring" pointer. The
temporary new_ring pointer will be set to NULL later causing the NULL
pointer dereference.
This issue was seen when reading xhci related files in debugfs:
