Subject: [PATCH 3.18 17/58] media: r820t: fix r820t_write_reg for KASAN

3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@...db.de>

commit 16c3ada89cff9a8c2a0eea34ffa1aa20af3f6008 upstream.

With CONFIG_KASAN, we get an overly long stack frame due to inlining
the register access functions:

drivers/media/tuners/r820t.c: In function 'generic_set_freq.isra.7':
drivers/media/tuners/r820t.c:1334:1: error: the frame size of 2880 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]

This is caused by a gcc bug that has now been fixed in gcc-8.
To work around the problem, we can pass the register data
through a local variable that older gcc versions can optimize
out as well.
