4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Maksim Salau <maksim.salau@xxxxxxxxx>

commit b05c73bd1e3ec60357580eb042ee932a5ed754d5 upstream.

Allocate buffers on HEAP instead of STACK for local structures
that are to be sent using usb_control_msg().
