3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Ilia Mirkin <imirkin@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 90d6db1635d5e225623af2e2e859feb607345287 upstream.
Some firmware images may be large (64K), so using kmalloc memory is
inappropriate for them. Use vmalloc instead, to avoid high-order
allocation failures.
