From include/linux/usb.h: /** * struct urb - USB Request Block .. * @transfer_buffer: This identifies the buffer to (or from) which the I/O * request will be performed unless URB_NO_TRANSFER_DMA_MAP is set * (however, do not leave garbage in transfer_buffer even then). * This buffer must be suitable for DMA; allocate it with * kmalloc() or equivalent. For transfers to "in" endpoints, contents * of this buffer will be modified. This buffer is used for the data * stage of control transfers.
