Subject: [PATCH] scsi: ufs: ufshcd: Remove VLA usage
Date: Wed, 2 May 2018 16:58:09 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180502235809.GA13998@beast> (raw)

On the quest to remove all VLAs from the kernel[1] this moves buffers
off the stack. In the second instance, this collapses two separately
allocated buffers into a single buffer, since they are used consecutively,
which saves 256 bytes (QUERY_DESC_MAX_SIZE + 1) of stack space.
