This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
stm class: Fix module init return on allocation failure
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-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: stm class: Fix module init return on allocation failure
In stm_heartbeat_init(): return value gets reset after the first
iteration by stm_source_register_device(), so allocation failures
after that will, after a clean up, return success. Fix that.
Fixes: 119291853038 ("stm class: Add heartbeat stm source device")
