Subject: dmaengine: imx-dma: fix slow path issue in prep_dma_cyclic
From: Michael Grzeschik <m.grzeschik@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit edc530fe7ee5a562680615d2e7cd205879c751a7 upstream.
When perparing cyclic_dma buffers by the sound layer, it will dump the
following lockdep trace. The leading snd_pcm_action_single get called
with read_lock_irq called. To fix this, we change the kcalloc call from
GFP_KERNEL to GFP_ATOMIC.
