This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled USB: sierra: fix use after free at suspend/resume 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-next 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 also be merged in the next major kernel release during the merge window. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From 8452727de70f6ad850cd6d0aaa18b5d9050aa63b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johan Hovold <jhovold@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 26 May 2014 19:22:51 +0200 Subject: USB: sierra: fix use after free at suspend/resume Fix use after free or NULL-pointer dereference during suspend and resume. The port data may never have been allocated (port probe failed) or may already have been released by port_remove (e.g. driver is unloaded) when suspend and resume are called.
