[PATCH] goldfish_pipe: allocate memory with GFP_ATOMIC in spinlock context

From: Alexey Khoroshilov
Date: Fri Jun 09 2017 - 19:18:46 EST


get_free_pipe_id_locked() is called with spinlock held, so
the patch replaces GFP_KERNEL with GFP_ATOMIC to avoid
sleeping in atomic spinlock context.

Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).
