[PATCH] USB: fix stack usage in pl2303 driver

Arghh - while trying to follow this I just realized the pl2303 is DMA'ing
to the stack - not good!
Could you please just try with the patch below. I'm not sure if this might
cause the MA620 trouble but it's definedly a bug and maybe it improves
things for you...
