This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
USB: serial: quatech2: handle unbound ports
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: quatech2: handle unbound ports
Check for NULL port data in the modem- and line-status handlers to avoid
dereferencing a NULL pointer in the unlikely case where a port device
isn't bound to a driver (e.g. after an allocation failure on port
probe).
Note that the other (stubbed) event handlers qt2_process_xmit_empty()
and qt2_process_flush() would need similar sanity checks in case they
are ever implemented.
