This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
serial: liteuart: Fix NULL pointer dereference in ->remove()
to my tty git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty.git
in the tty-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: serial: liteuart: Fix NULL pointer dereference in ->remove()
drvdata has to be set in _probe() - otherwise platform_get_drvdata()
causes null pointer dereference BUG in _remove().
