sleeping in kernel

I am running my code under debugging kernel (spin lock debugging). I am getting following message.

Oct 7 18:36:46 localhost kernel: Debug: sleeping function called from invalid context at mm/slab.c:2082

My question what is considered sleeping in kernel, beside

- memory allocation not using GFP_ATOMIC flag
- explicitly calling schedule (or its derivatives)
