We do not need slab allocations for ORB pointer write transactions
anymore in order to satisfy streaming DMA mapping constraints, thanks to
commit da28947e7e36 "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.)
