Subject: [BUG] wl3501: a possible sleep-in-atomic bug in wl3501_reset
Date: Tue, 12 Dec 2017 17:04:52 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <8b0519f9-e5f3-aa73-09be-f399f6a6865a@gmail.com> (raw)

According to drivers/net/wireless/wl3501_cs.c, the driver may sleep 
under a spinlock.
The function call path is:
wl3501_reset (acquire the spinlock)
   free_irq --> may sleep

I do not find a good way to fix it, so I only report.
This possible bug is found by my static analysis tool (DSAC) and checked 
by my code review.


Thanks,
Jia-Ju Bai
