From: Yuiko Oshino <yuiko.oshino@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit e8684db191e4164f3f5f3ad7dec04a6734c25f1c upstream. The driver allocates skb during ndo_open with GFP_ATOMIC which has high chance of failure when there are multiple instances. GFP_KERNEL is enough while open and use GFP_ATOMIC only from interrupt context.
