The PIO trailing buffer was being dynamically allocated
but the kcalloc return value was not being checked. Further,
the GFP_KERNEL was being used even though the send engine
might be called with interrupts disabled.
Since the maximum size of the trailing buffer is only 12
bytes (CRC = 4, LT = 1, Pad = 0 to 7 bytes) just statically
allocate the buffer, remove the alloc entirely and share it
with the SDMA engine by making it global.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
