This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
USB: qcserial: fix interface-data memory leak in error path
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: USB: qcserial: fix interface-data memory leak in error path
Move interface data allocation to attach so that it is deallocated
should usb-serial probe fail.
