[PATCH 2/2] scsi: st: Replace GFP_ATOMIC with GFP_KERNEL in new_tape_buffer

[Jia-Ju Bai]

new_tape_buffer() is never called in atomic context.

new_tape_buffer() is only called by st_probe(),
which is only set as ".probe" in struct scsi_driver.

Despite never getting called from atomic context,
new_tape_buffer() calls kzalloc() with GFP_ATOMIC,
which does not sleep for allocation.
GFP_ATOMIC is not necessary and can be replaced with GFP_KERNEL,
which can sleep and improve the possibility of sucessful allocation.

This is found by a static analysis tool named DCNS written by myself.
And I also manually check it.
