[PATCH] PCI: fix a scheduling in atomic bug

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This function is often called with a spinlock held so the allocation has
to be atomic.  The call tree is:

pci_specified_resource_alignment() <-- takes spin_lock();
 -> pci_dev_str_match()
    -> pci_dev_str_match_path()

Fixes: 07d8d7e57c28 ("PCI: Make specifying PCI devices in kernel parameters reusable")
