While testing ipcomp on a realtime kernel, Xiumei reported a "sleeping in atomic" bug, caused by a memory allocation while preemption is disabled (ipcomp_decompress -> alloc_page -> ... get_page_from_freelist). As Sebastian noted [1], this get_cpu() isn't actually needed, since ipcomp_decompress() is called in napi context anyway, so BH is already disabled. This patch replaces get_cpu + per_cpu_ptr with this_cpu_ptr, then simplifies the error returns, since there isn't any common operation left.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
