Since its very unlikely the firmware is DMA transfered into the card (check that obviously) I suspect using vmalloc/vfree instead of kmalloc/kfree will do the trick - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
