From: Hante Meuleman <meuleman@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Some systems have problems with allocating memory allocation larger
then 64K. Often on unload/load or suspend/resume a failure is
reported: Could not allocate wiphy device. This patch makes the
escan intermediate storage buf dynamically allocated, and smaller
than 64K.
