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

staging: greybus: Fix uninitialized scalar variable

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.

From: Oscar Carter oscar.carter@gmx.com Date: Sun, 10 May 2020 12:14:26 +0200 Subject: staging: greybus: Fix uninitialized scalar variable

In the "gb_tty_set_termios" function the "newline" variable is declared but not initialized. So the "flow_control" member is not initialized and the OR / AND operations with itself results in an undefined value in this member.

The purpose of the code is to set the flow control type, so remove the OR / AND self operator and set the value directly.
