Subject: [PATCH] kvaser_usb: fix "dma on the stack" errors

The dma buffer given to usb_bulk_msg() must be allocated and not on
the stack.
See Documentation/DMA-API-HOWTO.txt section "What memory is DMA'able?"

Signed-off-by: Olivier Sobrie <olivier@...rie.be>

Here is the incremental patch.
Thank you Greg !
