[PATCH v2] usb: core: Warn if an URB's transfer_buffer is on stack
From: Florian Fainelli
Date: Sun Apr 23 2017 - 21:30:52 EST
We see a large number of fixes to several drivers to remove the usage of
on-stack buffers feeding into USB transfer functions. Make it easier to spot
the offenders by adding a warning in usb_hcd_map_urb_for_dma() checking that
urb->transfer_buffer is not a stack object.

Changes in v2:
- moved the check from usb_start_wait_urb() to usb_hcd_map_urb_for_dma()
