[PATCH] fsl/fman: avoid sleeping in atomic context while adding an address

From: Yi Wang
Date: Fri Jan 04 2019 - 00:50:55 EST


From: Junhua Huang <huang.junhua@xxxxxxxxxx>

dev_set_rx_mode will call function pointer mac_dev->add_hash_mac_addr
while holding spin_lock_bh. The function pointer points to
memac_add_hash_mac_address when ethernet type is fman-memac,
which will kmalloc use GFP_KERNEL flag.
