media: dvb-ttusb-budget: don't use stack for USB transfers

This driver still uses the USB stack for DMA transfers,
which is broken for a long time. I almost dropped this driver,
as there's a high chance that nobody is using it with upstream
Kernels, as we didn't receive any bug reports.

As fixing this won't be hard, I ended opting to fix.

While here, I dropped an ugly hack that implemented read via
a separate function that was just doing a memcpy().

It should be noticed that, during the init phase, there's
a "b4" register that were never initialized, as its buffer
were used just to store the results of "b3" initialization.
