From 4a0721bf84da588bec013220f74563add71c0bbe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tapasweni Pathak Date: Fri, 20 Feb 2015 18:43:53 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] staging: emxx_udc: Replace GFP_KERNEL with GFP_ATOMIC To avoid deadlock, do not call blocking functions with spinlocks held. Replace GFP_KERNEL with GFP_ATOMIC, as the latter will fail if the pile doesn't have enough free pages but will not sleep and hence deadlock can be avoided. Found by Coccinelle.
