4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jia-Ju Bai <baijiaju1990@xxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 42c8eb3f6e15367981b274cb79ee4657e2c6949d ] The driver may sleep under a spinlock, and the function call path is: vt6655_suspend (acquire the spinlock) pci_set_power_state __pci_start_power_transition (drivers/pci/pci.c) msleep --> may sleep To fix it, pci_set_power_state is called without having a spinlock. This bug is found by my static analysis tool and my code review.
