From 930a6eac9f40e692bd9670d89bcd9ac0f4019356 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexey Khoroshilov Date: Mon, 30 May 2011 07:06:24 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] drivers/net/usb/catc.c: Fix potential deadlock in catc_ctrl_run() catc_ctrl_run() calls usb_submit_urb() with GFP_KERNEL, while it is called from catc_ctrl_async() and catc_ctrl_done() with catc->ctrl_lock spinlock held. The patch replaces GFP_KERNEL with GFP_ATOMIC. Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org). Signed-off-by: Alexey Khoroshilov Signed-off-by: David S.
