I don't expect vmalloc to work, as you can't DMA to vmalloc memory directly 
without any IOMMU in the general case (the allocated memory being physically 
fragmented).

dma-sg should work though, but you won't be able to use usb_bulk_msg(). You 
need to create the URBs manually, set their sg and num_sgs fields and submit 
them.
