commit 99b3b837855b987563bcfb397cf9ddd88262814b upstream.
There is a case found when triggering a panic_on_oom, pstore fails to dump
kmsg. Because psz_kmsg_write_record can't get the new buffer.
Handle this by using GFP_ATOMIC to allocate a buffer at lower watermark.

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.
