This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

usb: iowarrior: fix deadlock on disconnect

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.

We have to drop the mutex before we close() upon disconnect() as close() needs the lock. This is safe to do by dropping the mutex as intfdata is already set to NULL, so open() will fail.
