commit 1a10d7fdb6 upstream.
As warned by smatch:
drivers/media/usb/uvc/uvc_v4l2.c:911 uvc_ioctl_g_input() error: doing dma on the stack (&i)
drivers/media/usb/uvc/uvc_v4l2.c:943 uvc_ioctl_s_input() error: doing dma on the stack (&i)
those two functions call uvc_query_ctrl passing a pointer to
a data at the DMA stack. those are used to send URBs via
usb_control_msg(). Using DMA stack is not supported and should
not work anymore on modern Linux versions.
So, use a kmalloc'ed buffer.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
