[ Upstream commit6a0c054930] There are sleep in atomic context bugs when dm_fsync_timer_callback is executing. The root cause is that the memory allocation functions with GFP_KERNEL or GFP_NOIO parameters are called in dm_fsync_timer_callback which is a timer handler. The call paths that could trigger bugs are shown below: (interrupt context) dm_fsync_timer_callback write_nic_byte kzalloc(sizeof(data), GFP_KERNEL); //may sleep usb_control_msg kmalloc(.., GFP_NOIO); //may sleep write_nic_dword kzalloc(sizeof(data), GFP_KERNEL); //may sleep usb_control_msg kmalloc(.., GFP_NOIO); //may sleep This patch uses delayed work to replace timer and moves the operations that may sleep into the delayed work in order to mitigate bugs.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
