Subject: [media] au6610: get rid of on-stack dma buffer
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2a596f84e2e368a3167947b32c8ea51125f87c58;p=linux-beck.git

[media] au6610: get rid of on-stack dma buffer

usb_control_msg initiates (and waits for completion of) a dma transfer using
the supplied buffer. That buffer thus has to be seperately allocated on
the heap.

In lib/dma_debug.c the function check_for_stack even warns about it:
	WARNING: at lib/dma-debug.c:866 check_for_stack
