> While testing, I happened to notice a random crash that looked like:
>
> Kernel panic - not syncing: stack-protector:
> Kernel stack is corrupted in: drm_dp_dpcd_probe+0x120/0x120
>
> Analysis of drm_dp_dpcd_probe() shows that we pass in a 1-byte buffer
> (allocated on the stack) to the aux->transfer() function. Presumably
> if the aux->transfer() writes more than one byte to this buffer then
> we're in a bad shape.
