Subject: [PATCH 2/3] infiniband: i40iw: Replace GFP_ATOMIC with GFP_KERNEL in i40iw_make_listen_node
Date:   Wed, 11 Apr 2018 15:32:48 +0800
Message-Id: <1523431968-3552-1-git-send-email-baijiaju1990@gmail.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

i40iw_make_listen_node() is never called in atomic context.

i40iw_make_listen_node() is only called by i40iw_create_listen, which is 
set as ".create_listen" in struct iw_cm_verbs.

Despite never getting called from atomic context,
i40iw_make_listen_node() 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.
