This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
xhci: handle port status events for removed USB3 hcd
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.

At xhci removal the USB3 hcd (shared_hcd) is removed before the primary USB2 hcd. Interrupts for port status changes may still occur for USB3 ports after the shared_hcd is freed, causing NULL pointer dereference.
Check if xhci->shared_hcd is still valid before handing USB3 port events
