This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
Connector: Correctly set the error code in case of success when
to my driver-core git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core-2.6.git
in the driver-core-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 will be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.
If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: Connector: Correctly set the error code in case of success when
dispatching receive callbacks
The recent changes to the connector code introduced this bug where even
when a callback was invoked, we would return an error resulting in
double freeing of the skb. This patch fixes this bug.
