This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
USB: serial: fix infinite wait_until_sent timeout
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: USB: serial: fix infinite wait_until_sent timeout
Make sure to handle an infinite timeout (0).
Note that wait_until_sent is currently never called with a 0-timeout
argument due to a bug in tty_wait_until_sent.
Fixes: dcf010503966 ("USB: serial: add generic wait_until_sent
implementation")
