From 70458259936e723a4ac02c85bdbaf08dc69edfbe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrey Borzenkov Date: Fri, 10 Oct 2008 21:26:30 +0400 Subject: [PATCH] orinoco: reduce stack usage in firmware download path orinoco_dl_firmware and symbol_dl_mage allocate large local variables (1K); at least orinoco fails with panic or hung kernel if 4K stacks is enabled. Allocate large buffers dynamically at run time. Tested-By: Andrey Borzenkov for Agere case Signed-off-by: Andrey Borzenkov < arvidjaar@mail.ru> Signed-off-by: John W.
