This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled usb: gadget: udc: renesas_usb3: should fail if devm_phy_get() returns 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-testing 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 be merged to the usb-next branch sometime soon, after it passes testing, and the merge window is open. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From 0259068f63f23a665ded28647f2f9cdb6b20dc72 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yoshihiro Shimoda <yoshihiro.shimoda.uh@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 10 Apr 2018 14:38:53 +0900 Subject: usb: gadget: udc: renesas_usb3: should fail if devm_phy_get() returns error This patch fixes an issue that this driver ignores errors other than the non-existence of the device, f.e. a memory allocation failure in devm_phy_get(). So, this patch replaces devm_phy_get() with devm_phy_optional_get().
