[PATCH v2] iio: ad_sigma_delta: Don't put SPI transfer buffer on the stack
From: Alexandru Ardelean
Date: Fri Nov 13 2020 - 04:41:25 EST
From: Lars-Peter Clausen <lars@xxxxxxxxxx>
Use a heap allocated memory for the SPI transfer buffer. Using stack memory
can corrupt stack memory when using DMA on some systems.
This change moves the buffer from the stack of the trigger handler call to
the heap of the buffer of the state struct. The size increases takes into
account the alignment for the timestamp, which is 8 bytes.
So the buffer is put at an offset of 8 bytes.
Fixes: af3008485ea03 ("iio:adc: Add common code for ADI Sigma Delta devices")

Changelog v1 -> v2:
* bumped the buffer on state struct to 24 bytes
* increased the offset to 8 bytes to account for the timestamp alignment
