virtio-net: Stop doing DMA from the stack
Once virtio starts using the DMA API, we won't be able to safely DMA from the stack. virtio-net does a couple of config DMA requests from small stack buffers -- switch to using dynamically-allocated memory. This should have no effect on any performance-critical code paths. Reported-by: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com> Tested-by: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org>
