The devmap bulk queue is allocated with GFP_ATOMIC and the allocation
may fail if there is no available space in existing percpu pool.
Since commit 75ccae62cb8d42 ("xdp: Move devmap bulk queue into struct net_device")
moved the bulk queue allocation to NETDEV_REGISTER callback, whose context
is allowed to sleep, use GFP_KERNEL instead of GFP_ATOMIC to let percpu
allocator extend the pool when needed and avoid possible failure of netdev
registration.
As the required alignment is natural, we can simply use alloc_percpu().

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.
