As Alan pointed out, this buffer is in fact required and not pointless
at all even if reallocating it may be suboptimal.
Note however that there are several further allocations done by
usb_control_msg() for each control request.

As I mentioned in my comments to the previous patch, I've rewritten the
driver so that is no longer does this query in the write path. I kept
the buffer allocation for now though in case you want to rework this one
top.
