The call chain is:
ipw2100_pci_init_one (the probe function)
--> ipw2100_queues_allocate
--> ipw2100_tx_allocate
No lock is taken in the between.
So it is safe to use GFP_KERNEL in 'ipw2100_tx_allocate()'.
BTW, 'ipw2100_queues_allocate()' also calls 'ipw2100_msg_allocate()' which
already allocates some memory using GFP_KERNEL.

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.
