[PATCH] macb: Fix a possible sleep-in-atomic bug in macb_tx_error_task

From: Jia-Ju Bai
Date: Wed Dec 13 2017 - 05:44:03 EST


The driver may sleep under a spinlock.
The function call path is:
macb_tx_error_task (acquire the spinlock)
macb_halt_tx
usleep_range --> may sleep

To fix it, usleep_range is replaced with udelay.

This bug is found by my static analysis tool(DSAC) and checked by my code review.
