[PATCH] usb: xhci: fix call_kern.cocci warnings
From: Julia Lawall
Date: Tue Aug 01 2017 - 04:28:28 EST
GFP_KERNEL used when a lock is held. Convert to GFP_ATOMIC to avoid
the possibility of deadlock.

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.
