snd_ad1889_ac97_ready() is never called in atomic context. The call chain ending up at snd_ad1889_ac97_ready() is: [1] snd_ad1889_ac97_ready() <- snd_ad1889_ac97_xinit() <- snd_ad1889_ac97_init() <- snd_ad1889_probe() snd_ad1889_probe() is only set as ".probe" in struct pci_driver. This function is not called in atomic context. Despite never getting called from atomic context, snd_ad1889_ac97_ready() calls mdelay for busy wait. This is not necessary and can be replaced with usleep_range to avoid busy waiting. This is found by a static analysis tool named DCNS written by myself.
