This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
mei: make device disabled on stop unconditionally
to my char-misc git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git
in the char-misc-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: mei: make device disabled on stop unconditionally
Set the internal device state to to disabled after hardware reset in stop flow.
This will cover cases when driver was not brought to disabled state because of
an error and in stop flow we wish not to retry the reset.
