The lenovo_send_cmd_cptkbd function uses a stack variable to submit
commands via hid_hw_raw_request.  Eventually this gets to the
usb_hcd_map_urb_for_dma function, which causes a warning to be thrown
if the CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG option is enabled.

Fix this by allocating a temporary buffer instead.

The patch is

There is just one nitpick that can be solved while committing (or not,
depending on how Jiri handles it :-P ).

No need to initialized buf here :)

Cheers,

I've nuked the NULL-initialization and applied, thanks!
