tls: rx: strp: don't use GFP_KERNEL in softirq context
[ Upstream commit 74836ec828fe17b63f2006fdbf53311d691396bf ]
When receive buffer is small, or the TCP rx queue looks too
complicated to bother using it directly - we allocate a new
skb and copy data into it.
We already use sk->sk_allocation... but nothing actually
sets it to GFP_ATOMIC on the ->sk_data_ready() path.
Users of HW offload are far more likely to experience problems
due to scheduling while atomic. "Copy mode" is very rarely
triggered with SW crypto.
