This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    tty: fix compat TIOCGSERIAL checking wrong function ptr

to my tty git tree which can be found at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty.git
in the tty-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: tty: fix compat TIOCGSERIAL checking wrong function ptr

Commit 77654350306a ("take compat TIOC[SG]SERIAL treatment into
tty_compat_ioctl()") changed the compat version of TIOCGSERIAL to start
checking for the presence of the ->set_serial function pointer rather
than ->get_serial.  This appears to be a copy-and-paste error, since
->get_serial is the function pointer that is called as well as the
pointer that is checked by the non-compat version of TIOCGSERIAL.

Fix this by checking the correct function pointer.
