staging: rtl8192u: Do not use GFP_KERNEL in atomic context
'rtl8192_irq_rx_tasklet()' is a tasklet initialized in 'rtl8192_init_priv_task()'. >From this function it is possible to allocate some memory with the GFP_KERNEL flag, which is not allowed in the atomic context of a tasklet. Use GFP_ATOMIC instead. The call chain is: rtl8192_irq_rx_tasklet (in r8192U_core.c) --> rtl8192_rx_nomal (in r8192U_core.c) --> ieee80211_rx (in ieee80211/ieee80211_rx.c) --> RxReorderIndicatePacket (in ieee80211/ieee80211_rx.c) Fixes: 79a5ccd97209 ("staging: rtl8192u: fix large frame size compiler warning") Signed-off-by: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200813173458.758284-1-christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
