firewire: core: increase stack size of config ROM reader
The stack size of 16 was artificially chosen and may be too small in extreme cases. A device won't be accessible then. Since it doesn't really matter to the slab allocator whether we ask for 1088 bytes or 2048 bytes of scratch memory, just allocate 2048 bytes for the sum of temporary config ROM image and stack, and we will never ever overflow the stack (because there simply can't be more stack items than ROM entries).
