This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    usb: xhci: Fix OOPS in xhci error handling code

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: xhci: Fix OOPS in xhci error handling code

The xhci driver will OOPS on resume from S2/S3 if dma_alloc_coherent()
is out of memory. This is a result of two things:
1. xhci_mem_cleanup() in xhci-mem.c free's xhci->lpm_command if
it's not NULL, but doesn't set it to NULL after the free.
2. xhci_mem_cleanup() is called twice on resume, once for normal
restart and once from xhci_mem_init() if dma_alloc_coherent() fails,
resulting in a free of xhci->lpm_command that has already been freed.
The fix is to set xhci->lpm_command to NULL after freeing it.
