Subject: [PATCH] Staging: hv: fix sleeping while atomic issue
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
osd_schedule_callback() is called from VmbusOnMsgDPC() which runs
in a tasklet. Avoid possible sleeping by using GFP_ATOMIC for the
memory allocation.
Seems to fix #16701.
