firewire: fix panic in handle_at_packet
commit 10a4c735515a5afc317abe4d697a4c95f6d9d764
Author: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>

firewire: fix panic in handle_at_packet
This fixes a use-after-free bug in the handling of split transactions.
The AT DMA handler of the request was occasionally executed after the
AR DMA handler of the response. The AT DMA handler then accessed an
already freed packet.
Reported by Johannes Berg.
