[PATCH 1/2] [xarry]:Fixed an issue with memory allocated using the GFP_KERNEL flag in spinlocks

From: xiaofeng.yan
Date: Tue Nov 03 2020 - 21:30:59 EST


From: "xiaofeng.yan" <yanxiaofeng7@xxxxxx>

function xa_store_irq() has a spinlock as follows:
xa_lock_irq()
-->spin_lock_irq(&(xa)->xa_lock)
GFP_KERNEL flag could cause sleep.
So change GFP_KERNEL to GFP_ATOMIC and Romve "gfp_t gfp" in function
static inline void *xa_store_irq(struct xarray *xa, unsigned long index,
void *entry, gfp_t gfp)
