This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

xhci: Do not use GFP_KERNEL in (potentially) atomic context

to my usb git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git in the usb-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

'xhci_urb_enqueue()' is passed a 'mem_flags' argument, because "URBs may be submitted in interrupt context" (see comment related to 'usb_submit_urb()' in 'drivers/usb/core/urb.c')

So this flag should be used in all the calling chain. Up to now, 'xhci_check_maxpacket()' which is only called from 'xhci_urb_enqueue()', uses GFP_KERNEL.

Be safe and pass the mem_flags to this function as well.
