bonding: make slave status notifications GFP_ATOMIC
Currently we're using GFP_KERNEL, however there are some path(s) where we can hold some spinlocks, specifically bond->curr_slave_lock: [ 4.722916] BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at mm/slub.c:965 [ 4.724438] in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 940, name: ifup-eth [ 4.726034] 5 locks held by ifup-eth/940: ...snip... [ 4.734646] #4: (&bond->curr_slave_lock){+...+.}, at: [<ffffffffa00badc6>] bond_enslave+0xda6/0xdd0 [bonding] ...snip... [ 4.759081] [<ffffffffa00b6f11>] bond_change_active_slave+0x191/0x3b0 [bonding] [ 4.760917] [<ffffffffa00b7227>] bond_select_active_slave+0xf7/0x1d0 [bonding] [ 4.762751] [<ffffffffa00badce>] bond_enslave+0xdae/0xdd0 [bonding] ...snip... As it's out of hot path and is a really rare event - change the gfp_t flags to GFP_ATOMIC to avoid sleeping under spinlock. v2: convert new notify calls to GFP_ATOMIC.
