3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <m.chehab@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit 1d7fa359d4c0fbb2756fa01cc47212908d90b7b0 upstream. Dynamic static allocation is evil, as Kernel stack is too low, and compilation complains about it on some archs: drivers/media/usb/dvb-usb/dibusb-common.c:124:1: warning: 'dibusb_i2c_msg' uses dynamic stack allocation [enabled by default] Instead, let's enforce a limit for the buffer to be the max size of a control URB payload data (64 bytes).
