Subject[PATCH 3.11 042/198] [media] media: stk1160: Avoid stack-allocated buffer for control URBs
Date
3.11.10.13 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Ezequiel Garcia <ezequiel.garcia@free-electrons.com>

commit 85ac1a1772bb41da895bad83a81f6a62c8f293f6 upstream.

Currently stk1160_read_reg() uses a stack-allocated char to get the
read control value. This is wrong because usb_control_msg() requires
a kmalloc-ed buffer.

This commit fixes such issue by kmalloc'ating a 1-byte buffer to receive
the read value.

While here, let's remove the urb_buf array which was meant for a similar
purpose, but never really used.
