I don't think it's reasonable to kmalloc() a small integer every time
you want to use a USB message transfer to read or write chip
registers.

Instead, add a scratch buffer to struct r8152 which is allocated once
at driver attach time and which you can use for the transfers.

I think you only need an array of two u32's so something like:

        u32             transfer_buf[2];

ought to be sufficient.
