[PATCH 2/2] usb_gadget: Use GFP_ATOMIC in dma_pool_alloc().

[Vladimir Gratinskiy]

Calling memory allocation function from the context of interrupt:
request_irq(udc->irq, mv_udc_irq, IRQF_SHARED, driver_name, udc);
Function
mv_udc_irq(..) calls:
irq_process_tr_complete(..) that calls:
handle_setup_packet(..) that calls:
ch9setaddress(..) that calls:
udc_prime_status(..) that calls:
req_to_dtd(..) that calls:
build_dtd(..) that calls:
dma_pool_alloc(udc->dtd_pool, GFP_KERNEL, dma).
In the case of GFP_KERNEL flag, function execution can be preempted,
because a greater number of operations to find and allocate memory
blocks is executed.

The patch change GFP_KERNEL flag to GFP_ATOMIC.
