From 4e56569cee1505846b3dcb15fbf400f6a7e9f015 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jia-Ju Bai Date: Wed, 11 Apr 2018 15:33:06 +0800 Subject: infiniband: i40iw: Replace GFP_ATOMIC with GFP_KERNEL in i40iw_l2param_change i40iw_l2param_change() is never called in atomic context. i40iw_make_listen_node() is only set as ".l2_param_change" in struct i40e_client_ops, and this function pointer is not called in atomic context. Despite never getting called from atomic context, i40iw_l2param_change() calls kzalloc() with GFP_ATOMIC, which does not sleep for allocation. GFP_ATOMIC is not necessary and can be replaced with GFP_KERNEL, which can sleep and improve the possibility of sucessful allocation. This is found by a static analysis tool named DCNS written by myself. And I also manually check it.
