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

    phy: Find the right match in devm_phy_destroy()

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: phy: Find the right match in devm_phy_destroy()

devm_phy_create() stores the pointer to the new PHY at the address
returned by devres_alloc(). The res parameter passed to devm_phy_match()
is therefore the location where the pointer to the PHY is stored, hence
it needs to be dereferenced before comparing to the match data in order
to find the correct match.
