6.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: levi.yun <yeoreum.yun@xxxxxxx>
commit 7dc836187f7c6f70a82b4521503e9f9f96194581 upstream.
pid_list_fill_irq() runs via irq_work.
When CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT is disabled, it would run in irq_context.
so it shouldn't sleep while memory allocation.
Change gfp flags from GFP_KERNEL to GFP_NOWAIT to prevent sleep in
irq_work.
This change wouldn't impact functionality in practice because the worst-size
is 2K.
