Can't be:

			old_ce = memremap(old_ce_phys, PAGE_SIZE,
					MEMREMAP_WB);
			if (!old_ce)
				goto out;

			new_ce = alloc_pgtable_page(iommu->node, GFP_KERNEL);
			if (!new_ce)

memremap() is sleeping.

And the only caller is:

	ctxt_tbls = kcalloc(ctxt_table_entries, sizeof(void *), GFP_KERNEL);
	if (!ctxt_tbls)
		goto out_unmap;

	for (bus = 0; bus < 256; bus++) {
		ret = copy_context_table(iommu, &old_rt[bus],
					 ctxt_tbls, bus, ext);
