Subject: USB: serial: fix write memory-allocation flag
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=043e3f834530e15e89c58c1b7af59cc646700134;p=linux-beck.git

USB: serial: fix write memory-allocation flag

Fix regression introduced by commit 818f60365a29 ("USB: serial: add
memory flags to usb_serial_generic_write_start"), which incorrectly used
GFP_KERNEL in write(), which must not not sleep.
