3.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Johan Hovold <jhov...@gmail.com>

commit ea0dbebffe118724cd4df7d9b071ea8ee48d48f0 upstream.

Make sure to allocate the control-message buffer dynamically as some
platforms cannot do DMA from stack.

Note that only the first byte of the old buffer was used.
