[PATCH] firewire: sbp2: Replace GFP_ATOMIC with GFP_KERNEL in sbp2_scsi_queuecommand()

From: Jia-Ju Bai
Date: Mon Jul 23 2018 - 04:58:14 EST


sbp2_scsi_queuecommand() is only set to .queuecommand of
"struct scsi_host_template", and this function pointer is never called
in atomic context.

sbp2_scsi_queuecommand() calls kzalloc() with GFP_ATOMIC,
which is not necessary.
GFP_ATOMIC can be replaced with GFP_KERNEL.

This is found by a static analysis tool named DCNS written by myself.
I also manually check the kernel code before reporting it.
