Carl Huang 9c7f98086f ath10k: allocate small size dma memory in ath10k_pci_diag_write_mem
[ Upstream commit 0738b4998c ]

ath10k_pci_diag_write_mem may allocate big size of the dma memory
based on the parameter nbytes. Take firmware diag download as
example, the biggest size is about 500K. In some systems, the
allocation is likely to fail because it can't acquire such a large
contiguous dma memory.

The fix is to allocate a small size dma memory. In the loop,
driver copies the data to the allocated dma memory and writes to
the destination until all the data is written.

Tested with QCA6174 PCI with
firmware-6.bin_WLAN.RM.4.4.1-00119-QCARMSWP-1, this also affects
QCA9377 PCI.
