Subject: [PATCH 2/2] driver core:firmware:fix request_firmware_nowait
Date: Sat, 16 May 2009 21:54:18 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1242482058-5203-2-git-send-email-tom.leiming@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1242482058-5203-1-git-send-email-tom.leiming@gmail.com>

From: Ming Lei <tom.leiming@gmail.com>

request_firmware_nowait declares it can be called in non-sleep contexts,
but kthead_run called by request_firmware_nowait may sleep. So use
async_run_inatomic to start thread to request firmware.
