Dean Nelson 7682a4c624 [IA64-SGI] Silent data corruption caused by XPC V2.
Jack Steiner identified a problem where XPC can cause a silent
data corruption.  On module load, the placement may cause the
xpc_remote_copy_buffer to span two physical pages.  DMA transfers are
done to the start virtual address translated to physical.

This patch changes the buffer from a statically allocated buffer to a
kmalloc'd buffer.  Dean Nelson reviewed this before posting.  I have
tested it in the configuration that was showing the memory corruption
and verified it works.  I also added a BUG_ON statement to help catch
this if a similar situation is encountered.
