Subject: watchdog: pcwd_usb: Use allocated buffer for usb_control_msg
X-Git-Url: http://git.cdn.openwrt.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5412df0bda90a2bdcef2771849ad5472b9ef8100;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

watchdog: pcwd_usb: Use allocated buffer for usb_control_msg

usb_control_msg() must use a dma-capable buffer.

This fixes the following error reported by smatch:

drivers/watchdog/pcwd_usb.c:257 usb_pcwd_send_command() error: doing dma on the
stack (buf)
