patch "USB: serial: mos7720: fix mos_parport refcount imbalance on error" added to usb-linus

[<gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

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

    USB: serial: mos7720: fix mos_parport refcount imbalance on error

to my usb git tree which can be found at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git
in the usb-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: USB: serial: mos7720: fix mos_parport refcount imbalance on error
 path

The write_parport_reg_nonblock() helper takes a reference to the struct
mos_parport, but failed to release it in a couple of error paths after
allocation failures, leading to a memory leak.

Johan said that move the kref_get() and mos_parport assignment to the
end of urbtrack initialisation is a better way, so move it. and
mos_parport do not used until urbtrack initialisation.
