Hi,

It is due to try to allocate memory with GFP_KERNEL at ISR, below change
can fix it, if not better solution, I can submit a patch.

Well... I didn't get this error on my hardware (odroid u3+) and my
"other hardware" (dummy_hcd) but agree. This function is called from
set_alt() and this may be called in interrupt ctx so this should use
GFP_ATOMIC as you suggested.


Ok, then do I need to add "Cc: <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> # 3.18+" like
yours, I am not sure if your patch has already been in stable tree or not.


As far as I know my commit has not been merged to any stable by now.
