There are sleep in atomic context bugs when uploading device dump
data in mwifiex. The root cause is that dev_coredumpv could not
be used in atomic contexts, because it calls dev_set_name which
include operations that may sleep. The call tree shows execution
paths that could lead to bugs:
(Interrupt context)
fw_dump_timer_fn
mwifiex_upload_device_dump
dev_coredumpv(..., GFP_KERNEL)
dev_coredumpm()
kzalloc(sizeof(*devcd), gfp); //may sleep
dev_set_name
kobject_set_name_vargs
kvasprintf_const(GFP_KERNEL, ...); //may sleep
kstrdup(s, GFP_KERNEL); //may sleep
The corresponding fail log is shown below:

[ 135.389205] usb 1-1: == mwifiex dump information to /sys/class/devcoredump end
This patch uses delayed work to replace timer and moves the operations
that may sleep into a delayed work in order to mitigate bugs, it was
tested on Marvell 88W8801 chip whose port is usb and the firmware is
usb8801_uapsta.bin. The following is the result after using delayed
work to replace timer.
[ 134.936453] usb 1-1: == mwifiex dump information to /sys/class/devcoredump start
[ 135.043344] usb 1-1: == mwifiex dump information to /sys/class/devcoredump end
As we can see, there is no bug now.

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.
