Alan Stern 628c2893d4 USB: ene_usb6250: fix DMA to the stack
The ene_usb6250 sub-driver in usb-storage does USB I/O to buffers on
the stack, which doesn't work with vmapped stacks.  This patch fixes
the problem by allocating a separate 512-byte buffer at probe time and
using it for all of the offending I/O operations.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
