Subject: [PATCH 3.11 164/272] [media] af9035: Don't use dynamic static allocation

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

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

From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <m.chehab@...sung.com>

commit 7760e148350bf6df95662bc0db3734e9d991cb03 upstream.

Dynamic static allocation is evil, as Kernel stack is too low, and
compilation complains about it on some archs:
	drivers/media/usb/dvb-usb-v2/af9035.c:142:1: warning: 'af9035_wr_regs' uses dynamic stack allocation [enabled by default]
	drivers/media/usb/dvb-usb-v2/af9035.c:305:1: warning: 'af9035_i2c_master_xfer' uses dynamic stack allocation [enabled by default]
Instead, let's enforce a limit for the buffer to be the max size of
a control URB payload data (64 bytes).
