4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Tetsuo Handa <penguin-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 3bc53be9db21040b5d2de4d455f023c8c494aa68 upstream. syzbot is reporting stalls at nfc_llcp_send_ui_frame() [1]. This is because nfc_llcp_send_ui_frame() is retrying the loop without any delay when nonblocking nfc_alloc_send_skb() returned NULL. Since there is no need to use MSG_DONTWAIT if we retry until sock_alloc_send_pskb() succeeds, let's use blocking call. Also, in case an unexpected error occurred, let's break the loop if blocking nfc_alloc_send_skb() failed.
