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

mei: bus: block send with vtag on non-conformat FW

to my char-misc git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git in the char-misc-testing 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 be merged to the char-misc-next branch sometime soon, after it passes testing, and the merge window is open.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.
