The xHCI functions to queue an URB onto the hardware rings must be called with the xhci spinlock held. Those functions will allocate memory, and take a gfp_t memory flags argument. We must pass them the GFP_ATOMIC flag, since we don't want the memory allocation to attempt to sleep while waiting for more memory to become available.
