From 5eb35a6ccea61648a55713c076ab65423eea1ac0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefan Schmidt Date: Thu, 15 Dec 2016 18:40:16 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] ieee802154: atusb: do not use the stack for address fetching to make it DMA able From 4.9 we should really avoid using the stack here as this will not be DMA able on various platforms. This changes a buffer that was introduced in the 4.10 merge window.
