bnx2fc: reduce stack usage in __bnx2fc_enable
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
When the bnx2fc driver was changed to read the npiv table from
nvram, the stack of the __bnx2fc_enable function gained an
additional 1028 byte structure that gcc rightfully warns about:

drivers/scsi/bnx2fc/bnx2fc_fcoe.c: In function '__bnx2fc_enable':
drivers/scsi/bnx2fc/bnx2fc_fcoe.c:2134:1: warning: the frame size of 1128 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]

In order to avoid a possible kernel stack overflow and to get rid
of the warning, this changes the function to use a dynamic allocation
of the structure using kzalloc.
