If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Greg Kroah-Hartman commit 59bf5cf94f0fa3b08fb1258b52649077b7d0914d upstream. We were sending data on the stack when uploading firmware, which causes some machines fits, and is not allowed. Fix this by using the buffer we already had around for this very purpose.
