Subject: [PATCH] usb: xhci: fix call_kern.cocci warnings
Date: Tue, 1 Aug 2017 10:28:07 +0200 (CEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.DEB.2.20.1708011023340.3044@hadrien> (raw)

GFP_KERNEL used when a lock is held.  Convert to GFP_ATOMIC to avoid
the possibility of deadlock.

Fixes: 725d53536473 ("usb: xhci: Add DbC support in xHCI driver")
Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia.lawall@lip6.fr>

I don't have access to any more of the context than what is shown so I
don't know if this is a real bug.

You may want to see if it is instead possible to pull the call out of the
lock.
