This was recently changed from GFP_ATOMIC to GFP_KERNEL, but Smatch complains that GFP_ATOMIC is still required: drivers/firewire/core-topology.c:223 build_tree() warn: sleeping in atomic context The problematic call trees are: fw_core_handle_bus_reset() <- spin_lock_irqsave(&card->lock, flags); -> build_tree() -> fw_node_create() <- sleeping allocation fw_core_handle_bus_reset() <- spin_lock_irqsave(&card->lock, flags); -> update_tree() -> fw_node_event() This second call tree is a bit complicated because we event is not FW_NODE_CREATED so we would have to hit a goto create; to hit the bug.
