mei: use kvmalloc for read buffer
[ Upstream commit 4adf613e01bf99e1739f6ff3e162ad5b7d578d1a ] Read buffer is allocated according to max message size, reported by the firmware and may reach 64K in systems with pxp client. Contiguous 64k allocation may fail under memory pressure. Read buffer is used as in-driver message storage and not required to be contiguous. Use kvmalloc to allow kernel to allocate non-contiguous memory. Fixes: 3030dc056459 ("mei: add wrapper for queuing control commands.")
