Just to be clear: my suggestion is to use this in order to help you to
debug the issues with au0828/snd-usb-audio, that are sometimes producing
those Kernel messages:

[   23.267197] BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at mm/slub.c:1289

But I don't think that should patch should be merged upstream.

Regards,
Mauro
