In the code path __usb_hcd_giveback_urb() -> wdm_in_callback() -> service_outstanding_interrupt() The function service_outstanding_interrupt() will unconditionally enable interrupts during unlock and invoke usb_submit_urb() with GFP_KERNEL. If the HCD completes in BH (like ehci does) then the context remains atomic due local_bh_disable() and enabling interrupts does not change this. Defer the error case handling to a workqueue as suggested by Oliver Neukum. In case of an error the worker performs the read out and wakes the user.

How about shifting it to a work queue?
