This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
USB: serial: io_edgeport: add missing active-port sanity check
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: USB: serial: io_edgeport: add missing active-port sanity check
The driver receives the active port number from the device, but never
made sure that the port number was valid. This could lead to a
NULL-pointer dereference or memory corruption in case a device sends
data for an invalid port.
Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
