This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
misc/uss720: fix memory leak in uss720_probe
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: misc/uss720: fix memory leak in uss720_probe
uss720_probe forgets to decrease the refcount of usbdev in uss720_probe.
Fix this by decreasing the refcount of usbdev by usb_put_dev.
