This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
USB: usblp: fix a hang in poll() if disconnected
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: usblp: fix a hang in poll() if disconnected
Apparently an application that opens a device and calls select()
on it, will hang if the decice is disconnected. It's a little
surprising that we had this bug for 15 years, but apparently
nobody ever uses select() with a printer: only write() and read(),
and those work fine. Well, you can also select() with a timeout.
The fix is modeled after devio.c. A few other drivers check the
condition first, then do not add the wait queue in case the
device is disconnected. We doubt that's completely race-free.
So, this patch adds the process first, then locks properly
and checks for the disconnect.
