commit: d6064165ba4449ea085a389724d728258a3180ec [43/49] crypto: qat - adf_dev_stop should not be called in atomic context
config: i386-allmodconfig (attached as .config)
reproduce:
        git checkout d6064165ba4449ea085a389724d728258a3180ec
        # save the attached .config to linux build tree

   The function __init init_module() references
   a function __exit adf_exit_vf_wq().
   This is often seen when error handling in the init function
   uses functionality in the exit path.
   The fix is often to remove the __exit annotation of
   adf_exit_vf_wq() so it may be used outside an exit section.

Is it still complaining even after this?
