According to drivers/tty/hvc/hvc_xen.c, the kernel module may sleep under a spinlock.
The function call path is:
xen_pv_console_init (acquire the spinlock)
  xencons_info_pv_init
    gfn_to_virt (gfn_to_pfn) --> may sleep

I do not find a good way to fix it, so I only report.
This possible bug is found by my static analysis tool (DSAC) and my code review.


Thanks,
Jia-Ju Bai
