Subject: [PATCH 2/3] ATM: iphase, remove sleep-inside-atomic
Date: Mon, 11 Oct 2010 11:26:57 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1286789218-13976-2-git-send-email-jslaby@suse.cz> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1286789218-13976-1-git-send-email-jslaby@suse.cz>
Stanse found that ia_init_one locks a spinlock and inside of that it
calls ia_start which calls:
* request_irq
* tx_init which does kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL)
Both of them can thus sleep and result in a deadlock. I don't see a
reason to have a per-device spinlock there which is used only there
and inited right before the lock location. So remove it completely.
