download_firmware() is never called from atomic context. It is only called by ll_setup() that is called only via function pointer "->setup" used in hci_uart_setup() in drivers/bluetooth/hci_serdev.c and drivers/bluetooth/hci_ldisc.c. hci_uart_setup() is called only via function pointer "->setup" used in hci_dev_do_open() in net/bluetooth/hci_core.c. All of the above functions do not enter atomic context. Besides, ll_setup() calls msleep() and hci_dev_do_open calls mutex_lock(). So it indicates that all the above functions call functions that can sleep. Despite never getting called from atomic context, download_firmware() calls mdelay() for busy wait. That is not necessary and can be replaced with msleep to avoid busy wait. This is found by a static analysis tool named DCNS written by myself.
