patch "usb: cdc-wdm: Fix a sleep-in-atomic-context bug in" added to usb-linus

This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

usb: cdc-wdm: Fix a sleep-in-atomic-context bug in

to my usb git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git
in the usb-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

service_outstanding_interrupt()

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.
