Subject: [PATCH] R3964: fix GFP_KERNEL allocations in timer function
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=78dbe706e22f54bce61571ad837238382e1ba5f9;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

[PATCH] R3964: fix GFP_KERNEL allocations in timer function

In the error case, add_msg() gets called from timer functions, so should
be using GFP_ATOMIC instead of GFP_KERNEL.

Ref: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6659.  Thanks to Christian
Werner <chw@ch-werner.de> for reporting, and for the initial fix.
