The kernel module may sleep with holding a spinlock.

The function call paths (from bottom to top) are:

[FUNC] zalloc_cpumask_var(GFP_KERNEL)
drivers/net/ethernet/cisco/enic/enic_main.c, 125: zalloc_cpumask_var in enic_init_affinity_hint
drivers/net/ethernet/cisco/enic/enic_main.c, 1918: enic_init_affinity_hint in enic_open
drivers/net/ethernet/cisco/enic/enic_main.c, 2348: enic_open in enic_reset
drivers/net/ethernet/cisco/enic/enic_main.c, 2341: spin_lock in enic_reset

To fix this bug, GFP_KERNEL is replaced with GFP_ATOMIC.
