This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
iio:st_sensors: Fix oops when probing SPI devices
to my staging git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git
in the staging-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: iio:st_sensors: Fix oops when probing SPI devices
In SPI mode the transfer buffer is locked with a mutex. However this
mutex is only initilized after the probe, but some transfer needs to
be done in the probe.
To fix this bug we move the mutex initialization at the beginning of
the device probe.
