This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
USB: serial: ti_usb_3410_5052: fix port-close races
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.

Fix races between closing a port and opening or closing another port on the same device which could lead to a failure to start or stop the shared interrupt URB. The latter could potentially cause a use-after-free or worse in the completion handler on driver unbind.
