This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
tty: Add "spi:" prefix for spi modalias
to my tty git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty-2.6.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 will 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: tty: Add "spi:" prefix for spi modalias
Since commit e0626e38 (spi: prefix modalias with "spi:"),
the spi modalias is prefixed with "spi:".
This patch adds "spi:" prefix and removes "-spi" suffix in the modalias.
