3.2.51-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Johan Hovold <jhovold@xxxxxxxxx> commit ef6c8c1d733e244f0499035be0dabe1f4ed98c6f upstream. The parallel-port code of the drivers used a stack allocated control-request buffer for asynchronous (and possibly deferred) control requests. This not only violates the no-DMA-from-stack requirement but could also lead to corrupt control requests being submitted.
