firewire: sbp2: octlet AT payloads can be stack-allocated
We do not need slab allocations for ORB pointer write transactions anymore in order to satisfy streaming DMA mapping constraints, thanks to commit da28947e "firewire: ohci: avoid separate DMA mapping for small AT payloads". (Besides, the slab-allocated buffers that firewire-sbp2 used to provide for 8-byte write requests were still not fully portable since they shared a cacheline with unrelated CPU-accessed data.)
