This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
Revert "USB: serial: make bulk_out_size a lower limit"
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: Revert "USB: serial: make bulk_out_size a lower limit"
This reverts commit 5083fd7bdfe6760577235a724cf6dccae13652c2.
A bulk-out size smaller than the end-point size is indeed valid. The
offending commit broke the usb-debug driver for EHCI debug devices,
which use 8-byte buffers.
Fixes: 5083fd7bdfe6 ("USB: serial: make bulk_out_size a lower limit")
