The syzbot fuzzer identified a bug in the yurex driver: It passes GFP_KERNEL as a memory-allocation flag to usb_submit_urb() at a time when its state is TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE, not TASK_RUNNING: do not call blocking ops when !TASK_RUNNING; state=1 set at [<00000000370c7c68>] prepare_to_wait+0xb1/0x2a0 kernel/sched/wait.c:247 WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 340 at kernel/sched/core.c:7253 __might_sleep+0x135/0x190 kernel/sched/core.c:7253 Kernel panic - not syncing: panic_on_warn set ...
