This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
staging: greybus: Fix uninitialized scalar variable
to my staging git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git
in the staging-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: staging: greybus: Fix uninitialized scalar variable
In the "gb_tty_set_termios" function the "newline" variable is declared
but not initialized. So the "flow_control" member is not initialized and
the OR / AND operations with itself results in an undefined value in
this member.
The purpose of the code is to set the flow control type, so remove the
OR / AND self operator and set the value directly.
