What we're doing on most cases is to put a buffer (usually with 80
chars for USB drivers) inside the "state" struct (on DVB drivers),
in order to avoid doing kmalloc/kfree all the times. One such patch is 
changeset c4a98793a63c4.

I'm enclosing a non-tested patch fixing it for the cinergyT2-core.c
driver.

Thanks,

[PATCH] cinergyT2-core: don't do DMA on stack

The USB control messages require DMA to work. We cannot pass
a stack-allocated buffer, as it is not warranted that the
stack would be into a DMA enabled area.
