This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
staging: r8192e_pci: fix htons error
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: r8192e_pci: fix htons error
A sparse error fixup removed a htons() which is required for the driver
to function. This patch puts the htons() back and fixes the sparse
warning correctly by changing the left side cast.
