------------------------------------------------------
Subject: hid-core: fix lockdep in hid_input_report()
From: Krzysztof Helt <krzysztof.h1@xxxxx>

There is a lockdep warning in the hid_input_report() due to
kmalloc(.,GFP_KERNEL) allocation of a temporary buffer.  Change
hid_input_report() call inside the hid_ctrl() after Jiri Slaby's advice. 
This converts kmalloc() call into kmalloc(.,GFP_ATOMIC).

The lockdep trace is:
