The driver may sleep under a spin lock, and the function call path is:
ubifs_change_lp (acquire the lock by spin_lock)
  change_category
    ubifs_remove_from_cat
      remove_from_lpt_heap
        dbg_check_heap
          ubifs_lpt_lookup
            ubifs_read_nnode
              kzalloc(GFP_NOFS) --> may sleep

To fix it, "GFP_NOFS" is replaced with "GFP_ATOMIC".
