Ok, that works for me as well.

Please always check if it is really necessary before adding any GFP_ATOMIC allocation, cause that is rather invasive and should be avoided.

Christian.

The V2 of this patch is already reviewed by Harry.
The change i have made in dc_create() is no more applicable.

Are you sure this one can be called in atomic_context?

If so then everything in consstruct() would also need GFP_ATOMIC.

Well the backtrace is quite obvious, but I agree that change still looks fishy to me as well.

Using GFP_ATOMIC should only be a last resort when nothing else helps, but here it looks more like we misuse a spinlock where a mutex or semaphore would be more appropriate.

Where exactly becomes the context atomic in the call trace?

Christian.
