[PATCH] net: wimax: i2400m: Replace GFP_ATOMIC with GFP_KERNEL in i2400m_tx_setup

[Jia-Ju Bai]

i2400m_tx_setup() is never called in atomic context.

The call chains ending up at i2400m_tx_setup() are:
[1] i2400m_tx_setup() <- __i2400m_dev_start() <- 
	__i2400m_dev_reset_handle()
[2] i2400m_tx_setup() <- __i2400m_dev_start() <- i2400m_dev_start() <- 
	i2400m_setup() <- i2400mu_probe()
[3] i2400m_tx_setup() <- __i2400m_dev_start() <- i2400m_post_reset() <- 
	i2400mu_post_reset()

__i2400m_dev_reset_handle() is only set as a parameter of INIT_WORK() in 
i2400m_init().
i2400mu_probe() is only set as ".probe" in struct usb_driver.
i2400mu_post_reset() is only set as ".post_reset" in struct usb_driver.
These functions are not called in atomic context.

Despite never getting called from atomic context,
i2400m_tx_setup() calls kmalloc() 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.
