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

driver core: Call sync_state() even if supplier has no consumers

to my driver-core git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core.git
in the driver-core-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: driver core: Call sync_state() even if supplier has no consumers

The initial patch that added sync_state() support didn't handle the case where a supplier has no consumers. This was because when a device is successfully bound with a driver, only its suppliers were checked to see if they are eligible to get a sync_state(). This is not sufficient for devices that have no consumers but still need to do device state clean up. So fix this.

Fixes fc5a251d0fd7ca90 (driver core: Add sync_state driver/bus callback)
