The status[] is part of  uvc_device structure. We can't make sure
the address of status is at a cache-line boundary in all archs,so
status[] might share a cache-line with some fields in uvc_structure.
This can lead to some cache coherence issues(http://lwn.net/Articles/2265/).
Use dynamically allocated buffer instead.
