New subject: [alsa-devel] [PATCH] ASoC: Intel: sst: fix kmalloc call with wrong flags

8 Jun 2019

When calling kmalloc with GFP_KERNEL in case CONFIG_SLOB is unset,
kmem_cache_alloc_trace is called.
In case CONFIG_TRACING is set, kmem_cache_alloc_trace will ball
slab_alloc, which will call slab_pre_alloc_hook which might_sleep_if.
The context in which it is called in this case, the
intel_sst_interrupt_mrfld, calling a sleeping kmalloc generates a BUG():
Fixes: 972b0d456e64 ("ASoC: Intel: remove GFP_ATOMIC, use GFP_KERNEL")
