This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
USB: serial: fix potential stack buffer overflow
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: serial: fix potential stack buffer overflow
Make sure to verify the maximum number of endpoints per type to avoid
writing beyond the end of a stack-allocated array.
The current usb-serial implementation is limited to eight ports per
interface but failed to verify that the number of endpoints of a certain
type reported by a device did not exceed this limit.
