[PATCH] firewire: replace static ROM cache by allocated cache

From: Stefan Richter
Date: Sun Mar 02 2008 - 13:36:02 EST


read_bus_info_block() is repeatedly called by workqueue jobs.
These will step on each others toes eventually if there are multiple
workqueue threads, and we end up with corrupt config ROM images.
