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

    maple: make maple_bus_type static and const

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-next branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree

Subject: maple: make maple_bus_type static and const

There is no need to export maple_bus_type as no one uses it outside of
maple.c, so make it static, AND make it const as it can be read-only as
no one modifies it.
