The send_request() function was handling both synchronous
and asynchronous invocations, but were not handling
the asynchronous case, which may be called in an atomic
context, properly as it was sleeping.
Start to fix the problem by breaking up the two use
cases to separate functions calling a common internal
service function and return error instead of sleeping
for the asynchronous case.
The next patch will complete the fix by implementing
proper backlog handling.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
