This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
serial: sh-sci: Fix could not remove dev_attr_rx_fifo_timeout
to my tty git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty.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 be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release.
If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

This patch fixes an issue that the sci_remove() could not remove dev_attr_rx_fifo_timeout because uart_remove_one_port() set the port->port.type to PORT_UNKNOWN.
