Subject: [PATCH] video: limit stack usage of ir-kbd-i2c.c
Date: Mon, 25 Feb 2008 21:51:00 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080225205055.GA27455@joi> (raw)

ir_probe allocated struct i2c_client on stack;
it's pretty big structure, so allocate it with kzalloc

make checkstack output without this patch:
x059d ir_probe [ir-kbd-i2c]:                           1000

compile tested only
