This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled Fix USB CB/CBI storage devices with CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y to my usb git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git in the usb-linus branch. The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.) The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From 2ce9d2272b98743b911196c49e7af5841381c206 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Petr Vandrovec <petr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 10 Nov 2016 13:57:14 -0800 Subject: Fix USB CB/CBI storage devices with CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y Some code (all error handling) submits CDBs that are allocated on the stack. This breaks with CB/CBI code that tries to create URB directly from SCSI command buffer - which happens to be in vmalloced memory with vmalloced kernel stacks. Let's make copy of the command in usb_stor_CB_transport.
