More over, the only way to call this function is when a delayed work is schedule. And delayed work can sleep. INIT_DELAYED_WORK(&fw_event->work, mptsas_firmware_event_work); --> mptsas_firmware_event_work() --> mptsas_send_link_status_event() --> mptsas_expander_add() So there is really no good reason to use GFP_ATOMIC here. Change it to GFP_KERNEL to give more opportunities to the kernel.
