The drivers vt6655 and gma500 call pci_set_power_state under a spinlock, which may sleep. The function call paths are: gma_power_begin (acquire the spinlock) (drivers/gpu/drm/gma500/power.c) gma_resume_pci pci_set_power_state __pci_start_power_transition (drivers/pci/pci.c) msleep --> may sleep gma_power_begin (acquire the spinlock) (drivers/gpu/drm/gma500/power.c) gma_resume_pci pci_enable_device pci_enable_device_flags (drivers/pci/pci.c) do_pci_enable_device pci_set_power_state __pci_start_power_transition msleep --> may sleep vt6655_suspend (acquire the spinlock) (drivers/staging/vt6655/device_main.c) pci_set_power_state __pci_start_power_transition (drivers/pci/pci.c) msleep --> may sleep To fix these bugs, msleep is replaced with mdelay in __pci_start_power_transition These bugs are found by my static analysis tool and my code review.
