Sleeping in atomic context is a bug, this is a bug fix.
You should add a Fixes tag (probably 23f0703c125be AFAICT)
and target the patch at net rather than net-next.
Make sure you CC the authors of the patch under fixes (get_maintainer
will point them out if run on a patch file with a Fixes tag)
One more nit below...

You can save the awkward wrapping by using a double negation:

					target_value == !!(data & bit_mask)

this is a fairly common form in the kernel.
