Subject: [PATCH] staging: r888eu: use dynamic allocation for efuse buffer
Date:   Wed, 13 Jul 2022 09:58:04 +0200
Message-Id: <20220713075804.140986-1-martin@kaiser.cx>

Precedence: bulk

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.
