patch "cdc-acm: fix possible invalid access when processing notification" added to usb-testing

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

cdc-acm: fix possible invalid access when processing notification

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-testing 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 be merged to the usb-next branch sometime soon, after it passes testing, and the merge window is open.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: cdc-acm: fix possible invalid access when processing notification

Notifications may only be 8 bytes long. Accessing the 9th and 10th byte of unimplemented/unknown notifications may be insecure. Also check the length of known notifications before accessing anything behind the 8th byte.
