[PATCH] drivers: net: usb: rtl8150: concurrent URB bugfix

[Petko Manolov]

From: Petko Manolov <petkan@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch fixes a potential race with concurrently running asynchronous 
write requests.  The values for device's RX control register are now 
stored in dynamically allocated buffers so each URB submission has it's 
own copy.  Doing it the old way is data clobbering prone.

This patch is against latest 'net' tree.
