[PATCH 2/2] bdisp: Fix a possible sleep-in-atomic bug in bdisp_hw_save_request
From: Jia-Ju Bai
Date: Tue Dec 12 2017 - 08:45:37 EST
The driver may sleep under a spinlock.
The function call path is:
bdisp_device_run (acquire the spinlock)
bdisp_hw_update
bdisp_hw_save_request
devm_kzalloc(GFP_KERNEL) --> may sleep
To fix it, GFP_KERNEL is replaced with GFP_ATOMIC.
This bug is found by my static analysis tool(DSAC) and checked by my code review.
