Subject: sparc: Use GFP_ATOMIC in ldc_alloc_exp_dring() as it can be called in softirq context
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=dc911b31255d65ef7e54e416bfbea810af56cf7a;p=GitHub%2Fmt8127%2Fandroid_kernel_alcatel_ttab.git

sparc: Use GFP_ATOMIC in ldc_alloc_exp_dring() as it can be called in softirq context

Upstream commit 671d773297969bebb1732e1cdc1ec03aa53c6be2

Since it is possible for vnet_event_napi to end up doing
vnet_control_pkt_engine -> ... -> vnet_send_attr ->
vnet_port_alloc_tx_ring -> ldc_alloc_exp_dring -> kzalloc()
(i.e., in softirq context), kzalloc() should be called with
GFP_ATOMIC from ldc_alloc_exp_dring.
