[PATCH 3.14 21/76] vTPM: fix memory allocation flag for rtce buffer at kernel boot

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

3.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Hon Ching \(Vicky\) Lo <honclo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 60ecd86c4d985750efa0ea3d8610972b09951715 upstream.

At ibm vtpm initialzation, tpm_ibmvtpm_probe() registers its interrupt
handler, ibmvtpm_interrupt, which calls ibmvtpm_crq_process to allocate
memory for rtce buffer.  The current code uses 'GFP_KERNEL' as the
type of kernel memory allocation, which resulted a warning at
kernel/lockdep.c.  This patch uses 'GFP_ATOMIC' instead so that the
allocation is high-priority and does not sleep.
