brcmfmac: command request size is determined by expected response size?

Hi,

Looking at brcmfmac in Linux 3.16 with a BCM43241 SDIO card, I noticed that
brcmf_construct_reginfo() constructs and submits a really large
(1.5kb) request to the card. However, the actual request seems really
small and trivial (a header, the word "chanspecs" and not much more),
and we end up sending a whole lot of zeroes to fill the 1.5kb
allocation (MEDLEN).

I can understand that the card may wish to send 1.5kb in response, but
does the request itself really need to be the same size?

Thanks
Daniel
