rtlwifi allocates both setup_packet and data buffer of control message urb,
using shared kmalloc in _usbctrl_vendorreq_async_write. Structure used for
allocating is:
	struct {
		u8 data[254];
		struct usb_ctrlrequest dr;
	};

Because 'struct usb_ctrlrequest' is __packed, setup packet is unaligned and
DMA mapping of both 'data' and 'dr' confuses ARM/sunxi, leading to memory
corruptions and freezes.

Patch changes setup packet to be allocated separately.

[v2]:
 - Use WARN_ON_ONCE instead of WARN_ON
