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

USB: lvtest: return proper error code in probe

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.

lvs_rh_probe() can return some nonnegative value from usb_control_msg() when it is less than "USB_DT_HUB_NONVAR_SIZE + 2" that is considered as a failure. Make lvs_rh_probe() return -EINVAL in this case.
