Subject: [PATCH 36/58] zd1201: do not use stack as URB transfer_buffer

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

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

From: Jussi Kivilinna <jussi.kivilinna@....fi>

commit 1206ff4ff9d2ef7468a355328bc58ac6ebf5be44 upstream.

Patch fixes zd1201 not to use stack as URB transfer_buffer. URB buffers need
to be DMA-able, which stack is not.

Patch is only compile tested.
