staging: vt6656: use off stack for in buffer USB transfers.
Since 4.9 mandated USB buffers to be heap allocated. This causes the driver to fail. Create buffer for USB transfers. Signed-off-by: Malcolm Priestley <tvboxspy@gmail.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # v4.9+ Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
