patch "usb: typec: mux: Fix matching with typec_altmode_desc" added to usb-linus

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

usb: typec: mux: Fix matching with typec_altmode_desc

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: typec: mux: Fix matching with typec_altmode_desc

In typec_mux_match() "nval" is assigned the number of elements in the "svid" fwnode property, then the variable is used to store the success of the read and finally attempts to loop between 0 and "success" - i.e. not at all - and the code returns indicating that no match was found.

Fix this by using a separate variable to track the success of the read, to allow the loop to get a change to find a match.
