From: Jia-Ju Bai <baijiaju1990@163.com>


[ Upstream commit 93818da5eed63fbc17b64080406ea53b86b23309 ]

The driver may sleep under a read spin lock, and the function call path is:
send_socklist (acquire the lock by read_lock)
  skb_copy(GFP_KERNEL) --> may sleep

To fix it, the "GFP_KERNEL" is replaced with "GFP_ATOMIC".
