From: Dave Stevenson <dave.steven...@raspberrypi.org> The commit "staging: bcm2835-camera: Replace open-coded idr with a struct idr." replaced an internal implementation of an idr with the standard functions and a spinlock. idr_alloc(GFP_KERNEL) can sleep whilst calling kmem_cache_alloc to allocate the new node, but this is not valid whilst in an atomic context due to the spinlock.
There is no need for this to be a spinlock as a standard mutex is sufficient. Fixes: 950fd867c635 ("staging: bcm2835-camera: Replace open-coded idr with a struct idr.")
