[PATCH 4.4 41/41] RDMA/cxgb4: Do not dma memory off of the stack

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Greg KH <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 3840c5b78803b2b6cc1ff820100a74a092c40cbb upstream.

Nicolas pointed out that the cxgb4 driver is doing dma off of the stack,
which is generally considered a very bad thing.  On some architectures it
could be a security problem, but odds are none of them actually run this
driver, so it's just a "normal" bug.

Resolve this by allocating the memory for a message off of the heap
instead of the stack.  kmalloc() always will give us a proper memory
location that DMA will work correctly from.
