[PATCH] ntb: reduce stack usage in idt_scan_mws

[Arnd Bergmann <arnd@kernel.org>]

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

idt_scan_mws() puts a large fixed-size array on the stack and copies
it into a smaller dynamically allocated array at the end. On 32-bit
targets, the fixed size can easily exceed the warning limit for
possible stack overflow:

drivers/ntb/hw/idt/ntb_hw_idt.c:1041:27: error: stack frame size (1032) exceeds limit (1024) in 'idt_scan_mws' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than]

Change it to instead just always use dynamic allocation for the
array from the start. It's too big for the stack, but not actually
all that much for a permanent allocation.

A number of users have reported this in the past, but I couldn't
find any other patch for it so far.
