commit f41ed88cbd6f025f7a683a11a74f901555fba11c upstream. GFP_KERNEL may and will sleep, and this is being executed in a non-preemptible context; this will mess things up since it's called inbetween DC_FP_START/END, and rescheduling will result in the DC_FP_END later being called in a different context (or just crashing if any floating point/vector registers/instructions are used after the call is resumed in a different context).

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
