According to drivers/usb/host/isp116x-hcd.c, the kernel module may sleep 
under a spinlock.
The function call path is:
isp116x_start (acquire the spinlock)
   device_init_wakeup
     device_wakeup_enable
       wakeup_source_register
         wakeup_source_create
           kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL) --> may sleep

I do not find a good way to fix it, so I only report.
This possible bug is found by my static analysis tool (DSAC) and checked 
by my code review.


Thanks,
Jia-Ju Bai
