[ 070/110] HID: battery: dont do DMA from stack

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Sep 24 2013 - 21:01:17 EST


3.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@xxxxxxx>

commit 6c2794a2984f4c17a58117a68703cc7640f01c5a upstream.

Instead of using data from stack for DMA in hidinput_get_battery_property(),
allocate the buffer dynamically.
