scsi: isci: Pass gfp_t flags in isci_port_link_up()
[ Upstream commit 5ce7902902adb8d154d67ba494f06daa29360ef0 ]
Use the new libsas event notifiers API, which requires callers to
explicitly pass the gfp_t memory allocation flags.
libsas sas_notify_port_event() is called from isci_port_link_up(). Below
is the context analysis for all of its call chains:

As can be seen from the "(*)" markers above, all the call-chains are
atomic. Pass GFP_ATOMIC to libsas port event notifier.
Note, the now-replaced libsas APIs used in_interrupt() to implicitly decide
which memory allocation type to use. This was only partially correct, as
it fails to choose the correct GFP flags when just preemption or interrupts
are disabled. Such buggy code paths are marked with "(@)" in the call
chains above.
