[PATCH] crypto: rsa-pkcs1pad: Replace GFP_ATOMIC with GFP_KERNEL in pkcs1pad_encrypt_sign_complete

From: Jia-Ju Bai
Date: Thu Jan 25 2018 - 04:53:34 EST


After checking all possible call chains to kzalloc here,
my tool finds that this kzalloc is never called in atomic context.
Thus GFP_ATOMIC is not necessary, and it can be replaced with GFP_KERNEL.

This is found by a static analysis tool named DCNS written by myself.
