This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
tty/n_hdlc: fix __might_sleep warning
to my tty git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty.git
in the tty-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.

Subject: tty/n_hdlc: fix __might_sleep warning
Fix __might_sleep warning[1] in tty/n_hdlc.c read due to copy_to_user
call while current is TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE. This is a false positive
since the code path does not depend on current state remaining
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE. The loop breaks out and sets TASK_RUNNING after
calling copy_to_user.
This patch supresses the warning by setting TASK_RUNNING before calling
copy_to_user.
