This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
iio: sca3000: Remove an erroneous 'get_device()'
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.

This looks really unusual to have a 'get_device()' hidden in a 'dev_err()' call. Remove it.
While at it add a missing \n at the end of the message.
