[media] dw2102: get rid of on-stack dma buffer
usb_control_msg initiates (and waits for completion of) a dma transfer using
the supplied buffer. That buffer thus has to be seperately allocated on
the heap.
In lib/dma_debug.c the function check_for_stack even warns about it:
WARNING: at lib/dma-debug.c:866 check_for_stack
Note: This change is tested to compile only, as I don't have the hardware.
