The driver may sleep in an interrupt handler. The function call path (from bottom to top) in Linux-4.17 is: [FUNC] fotg210_ep_queue(GFP_KERNEL) drivers/usb/gadget/udc/fotg210-udc.c, 744: fotg210_ep_queue in fotg210_get_status drivers/usb/gadget/udc/fotg210-udc.c, 768: fotg210_get_status in fotg210_setup_packet drivers/usb/gadget/udc/fotg210-udc.c, 949: fotg210_setup_packet in fotg210_irq (interrupt handler) To fix this bug, GFP_KERNEL is replaced with GFP_ATOMIC. If possible, spin_unlock() and spin_lock() around fotg210_ep_queue() can be also removed. This bug is found by my static analysis tool DSAC.
