[PATCH] staging: dgnc: fix compile warning frame size is larger than 1024 bytes

[Martin Kepplinger]

fix following warning by dynamically allocating memory:
dgnc_tty.c:583:1: warning: the frame size of 1060 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]

Signed-off-by: Martin Kepplinger <martink@xxxxxxxxx>

This is more of a question. Is this a desired solution to fixing such a
frame size warning?

thanks,
                martin
