To be precise. copy_*_user() of course implies that you can do GFP_KERNEL. But the point is one of design. Right now I can change locking and if that means that one must use GFP_NOIO, which is common in usb due to the storage driver, we can find out by simply grepping and move the user space copy outside of the loop. If you make that change we must grep against a second and rare key.
