Subject: [patch] staging: comedi: usbdux: allocating too much data
Date: Tue, 20 Aug 2013 09:06:19 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130820090618.GD20170@elgon.mountain> (raw)

We only need to allocate enough space for a pointer.  We allocate the
space for the urbs themselves with the call to usb_alloc_urb() a few
lines later.

Untested.
