SubjectRe: [PATCH 1/2] hp100: Fix a possible sleep-in-atomic bug in hp100_login_to_vg_hub

Sorry,

I think I know your meaning now.

Maybe we can unlock the spinlock before "schedule_timeout_interruptible"
and then lock again?
Like:
spin_unlock(...);
schedule_timeout_interruptible(1);
spin_lock(...);


Best wishes,
Jia-Ju Bai
