Subject: [PATCH] staging: r888eu: use dynamic allocation for efuse buffer
Date: Wed, 13 Jul 2022 09:58:04 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220713075804.140986-1-martin@kaiser.cx> (raw)
Use kmalloc to allocate the efuse buffer in ReadAdapterInfo8188EU and
free it on exit. This is better than using a 512 byte array on the stack.
It's ok to drop the __aligned(4) qualifier. kmalloc aligns to
ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN, this is at least 8 bytes.
