mwifiex: Do not use GFP_KERNEL in atomic context
[ Upstream commit d2ab7f00f4321370a8ee14e5630d4349fdacc42e ] A possible call chain is as follow: mwifiex_sdio_interrupt (sdio.c) --> mwifiex_main_process (main.c) --> mwifiex_process_cmdresp (cmdevt.c) --> mwifiex_process_sta_cmdresp (sta_cmdresp.c) --> mwifiex_ret_802_11_scan (scan.c) --> mwifiex_parse_single_response_buf (scan.c) 'mwifiex_sdio_interrupt()' is an interrupt function. Also note that 'mwifiex_ret_802_11_scan()' already uses GFP_ATOMIC. So use GFP_ATOMIC instead of GFP_KERNEL when memory is allocated in 'mwifiex_parse_single_response_buf()'. Fixes: 7c6fa2a843c5 ("mwifiex: use cfg80211 dynamic scan table and cfg80211_get_bss API") or Fixes: 601216e12c65e ("mwifiex: process RX packets in SDIO IRQ thread directly") Signed-off-by: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@codeaurora.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200809092906.744621-1-christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
