[PATCH 6.8 017/273] ixgbe: avoid sleeping allocation in ixgbe_ipsec_vf_add_sa()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

6.8-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Przemek Kitszel <przemyslaw.kitszel@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit aec806fb4afba5fe80b09e29351379a4292baa43 ]

Change kzalloc() flags used in ixgbe_ipsec_vf_add_sa() to GFP_ATOMIC, to
avoid sleeping in IRQ context.

Dan Carpenter, with the help of Smatch, has found following issue:
The patch eda0333ac293: "ixgbe: add VF IPsec management" from Aug 13,
2018 (linux-next), leads to the following Smatch static checker
warning: drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbe/ixgbe_ipsec.c:917 ixgbe_ipsec_vf_add_sa()
	warn: sleeping in IRQ context

The call tree that Smatch is worried about is:
ixgbe_msix_other() <- IRQ handler
-> ixgbe_msg_task()
   -> ixgbe_rcv_msg_from_vf()
      -> ixgbe_ipsec_vf_add_sa()

Fixes: eda0333ac293 ("ixgbe: add VF IPsec management")
