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

iio: adc: max9611: Fix temperature reading in probe

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.

The max9611 driver reads the die temperature at probe time to validate the communication channel. Use the actual read value to perform the test instead of the read function return value, which was mistakenly used so far.

The temperature reading test was only successful because the 0 return value is in the range of supported temperatures.
