[PATCH 4.18 004/228] misc: ibmvmc: Use GFP_ATOMIC under spin lock

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

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

------------------

From: Wei Yongjun <weiyongjun1@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 97b715b62e5b4c6edb75d023f556fd09a46cb4e1 ]

The function alloc_dma_buffer() is called from ibmvmc_add_buffer(),
in which a spin lock be held here, so we should use GFP_ATOMIC when
a lock is held.
