Sending URB control messages from stack was never supported. Yet, on x86,
the stack was usually at a memory region that allows DMA transfer.
So, several drivers got it wrong. On Kernel 4.9, if VMAP_STACK=y, none of
those drivers will work, as the stack won't be on a DMA-able area anymore.
So, fix the media drivers that requre it. It should noticed that the vast
majority are at dvb-usb.
Please notice that those patches are compile-tested only. So, I really
appreciate if people with devices using those drivers could test and
report if they don't break anything. I intend to send this
PS.: I didn't verify any media driver inside staging.
Version 2:
- Added other USB drivers that are out of dvb-usb. After this series, all
drivers will use kmalloc'ed buffers, although I won't doubt that some
implementations may still have issues.
- Be sure that, on all places where it is using a buffer allocated at the
dvb-usb state structs, they'll be protected by some mutex. On some
such cases, there was already a mutex at the DVB core. So, I didn't
need to add a new one. Thanks to Antti that reminded me about such
need.
