The driver may sleep with holding a spinlock.
The function call path (from bottom to top) in Linux-4.16.7 is:
[FUNC] schedule
drivers/staging/rtlwifi/halmac/rtl_halmac.c, 884:
schedule in _is_fw_read_cmd_down
drivers/staging/rtlwifi/halmac/rtl_halmac.c, 912:
_is_fw_read_cmd_down in rtl_halmac_send_h2c
drivers/staging/rtlwifi/halmac/rtl_halmac.c, 907:
_raw_spin_lock_irqsave in rtl_halmac_send_h2c
To fix this bug, schedule() is replaced with mdelay(1).
This bug is found by my static analysis tool (DSAC-2) and checked by
my code review.
