Use the new libsas event notifiers API, which requires callers to explicitly pass the gfp_t memory allocation flags. The libsas ->notify_phy_event() hook is exclusively called from isci_port_link_down(). Below is the context analysis for all of its call chains: port.c: port_timeout(), atomic, timer callback (*) spin_lock_irqsave(isci_host::scic_lock, ) -> port_state_machine_change(..., SCI_PORT_FAILED) -> enter SCI port state: *SCI_PORT_FAILED* -> sci_port_failed_state_enter() -> isci_port_hard_reset_complete() -> isci_port_link_down() port.c: isci_port_perform_hard_reset() spin_lock_irqsave(isci_host::scic_lock, ) -> port.c: sci_port_hard_reset(), atomic (*) -> phy.c: sci_phy_reset() -> sci_change_state(SCI_PHY_RESETTING) -> enter SCI PHY state: *SCI_PHY_RESETTING* -> sci_phy_resetting_state_enter() -> port.c: sci_port_deactivate_phy() -> isci_port_link_down() port.c: enter SCI port state: *SCI_PORT_READY* #

The only exception, marked with "(+)", is a PCI ->remove() and PM_OPS ->suspend() cold path. Thus, pass GFP_ATOMIC to the libsas phy event notifier. Note, The now-replaced libsas APIs used in_interrupt() to implicitly decide which memory allocation type to use. This was only partially correct, as it fails to choose the correct GFP flags when just preemption or interrupts are disabled. Such buggy code paths are marked with "(@)" in the call chains above.
