This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
binder: fix incorrect calculation for num_valid
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-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: binder: fix incorrect calculation for num_valid
For BINDER_TYPE_PTR and BINDER_TYPE_FDA transactions, the
num_valid local was calculated incorrectly causing the
range check in binder_validate_ptr() to miss out-of-bounds
offsets.
Fixes: bde4a19fc04f ("binder: use userspace pointer as base of buffer space")
