Currently stk1160_read_reg() uses a stack-allocated char to get the read control value. This is wrong because usb_control_msg() requires a kmalloc-ed buffer, and a DMA-API warning is produced: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1376 at lib/dma-debug.c:1153 check_for_stack+0xa0/0x100() ehci-pci 0000:00:0a.0: DMA-API: device driver maps memory fromstack [addr=ffff88003d0b56bf] This commit fixes such issue by using a 'usb_ctrl_read' field embedded in the device's struct to pass the value. In addition, we introduce a mutex to protect the value. While here, let's remove the urb_buf array which was meant for a similar purpose, but never really used.
