[PATCH v2 29/31] s2255drv: don't use stack for DMA

From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab
Date: Tue Oct 11 2016 - 06:13:13 EST


From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The USB control messages require DMA to work. We cannot pass
a stack-allocated buffer, as it is not warranted that the
stack would be into a DMA enabled area.
