[PATCH] opl3: Fix a possible sleep-in-atomic bug in snd_opl3_find_patch

From: Jia-Ju Bai
Date: Sun Oct 08 2017 - 22:34:08 EST


The driver may sleep under a spinlock, and the function call path is:
snd_opl3_note_on (acquire the spinlock)
snd_opl3_find_patch
kzalloc(GFP_KERNEL) --> may sleep

To fix it, GFP_KERNEL is replaced with GFP_ATOMIC.
This bug is found by my static analysis tool and my code review.
