Subject: patch "ihex: Share code between ihex_validate_fw() and ihex_next_binrec()" added to driver-core-next


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

    ihex: Share code between ihex_validate_fw() and ihex_next_binrec()

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-next 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 also be merged in the next major kernel release
during the merge window.

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

Subject: ihex: Share code between ihex_validate_fw() and ihex_next_binrec()

Convert both ihex_validate_fw() and ihex_next_binrec() to use a helper
function to calculate next record offest. This way we only have one
place implementing next record offset calculation logic. No functional
change intended.
