From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
vxge_os_dma_malloc() and vxge_os_dma_malloc_async() are both called from
callchains which use GFP_KERNEL allocations unconditionally or have other
requirements to be called from fully preemptible task context..
vxge_os_dma_malloc():
1) __vxge_hw_blockpool_create() <- GFP_KERNEL
2) __vxge_hw_mempool_grow() <- vzalloc()
__vxge_hw_blockpool_malloc()
vxge_os_dma_malloc_async():
1 __vxge_hw_mempool_grow() <- vzalloc()
__vxge_hw_blockpool_malloc()
__vxge_hw_blockpool_blocks_add()
2) vxge_hw_vpath_open() <- vzalloc()
__vxge_hw_blockpool_block_allocate()
That means neither of these functions needs a conditional allocation mode.
Remove the in_interrupt() conditional and use GFP_KERNEL.
