usb_write_port_complete() in usb_ops_linux.c is a completion handler
function for the USB driver. So it should not sleep, but it is can sleep
according to the function call paths (from bottom to top) in Linux-4.16:
[FUNC] kzalloc(GFP_KERNEL)
drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/core/rtw_cmd.c, 1081:
kzalloc in rtw_chk_hi_queue_cmd
drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/os_dep/usb_ops_linux.c, 604:
rtw_chk_hi_queue_cmd in usb_write_port_complete
[FUNC] kzalloc(GFP_KERNEL)
drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/core/rtw_cmd.c, 1075:
kzalloc in rtw_chk_hi_queue_cmd
drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/os_dep/usb_ops_linux.c, 604:
rtw_chk_hi_queue_cmd in usb_write_port_complete
To fix these bugs, GFP_KERNEL is replaced with GFP_ATOMIC.
These bugs are found by my static analysis tool DSAC.
