[PATCH 4.4 44/70] usb: cdc-wdm: Fix a sleep-in-atomic-context bug in service_outstanding_interrupt()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Sep 24 2018 - 07:56:25 EST


4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jia-Ju Bai <baijiaju1990@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 6e22e3af7bb3a7b9dc53cb4687659f6e63fca427 upstream.

wdm_in_callback() is a completion handler function for the USB driver.
So it should not sleep. But it calls service_outstanding_interrupt(),
which calls usb_submit_urb() with GFP_KERNEL.

To fix this bug, GFP_KERNEL is replaced with GFP_ATOMIC.

This bug is found by my static analysis tool DSAC.
