3.2.92-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Josh Boyer <jwboyer@xxxxxxxxxx> commit ff17999184ed13829bc14c3be412d980173dff40 upstream. The ttusb2_msg function uses on-stack variables to submit commands to dvb_usb_generic. This eventually gets to the DMA api layer and will throw a traceback if the debugging options are set. This allocates the temporary buffer variables with kzalloc instead.
