Subject: [PATCH] net: intel: ixgbe: Replace GFP_ATOMIC with GFP_KERNEL
Date: Fri, 27 Jul 2018 16:22:31 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180727082231.3798-1-baijiaju1990@gmail.com> (raw)

ixgbe_fcoe_ddp_setup(), ixgbe_setup_fcoe_ddp_resources() and 
ixgbe_sw_init() are never called in atomic context.
They call kmalloc(), dma_pool_alloc() and kzalloc() with GFP_ATOMIC, 
which is not necessary.
GFP_ATOMIC can be replaced with GFP_KERNEL.

This is found by a static analysis tool named DCNS written by myself.
