Dynamic static allocation is evil, as Kernel stack is too low, and compilation complains about it on some archs: drivers/media/pci/ttpci/av7110_hw.c:510:1: warning: 'av7110_fw_cmd' uses dynamic stack allocation [enabled by default] Instead, let's enforce a limit for the buffer. In the specific case of this driver, the maximum fw command size is 6 + 2, as checked using: $ git grep -A1 av7110_fw_cmd drivers/media/pci/ttpci/ So, use 8 for the buffer size.
