Taehee Yoo f74b31871d gtp: fix Illegal context switch in RCU read-side critical section.
[ Upstream commit 3f167e1921865b379a9becf03828e7202c7b4917 ]

ipv4_pdp_add() is called in RCU read-side critical section.
So GFP_KERNEL should not be used in the function.
This patch make ipv4_pdp_add() to use GFP_ATOMIC instead of GFP_KERNEL.

Test commands:
gtp-link add gtp1 &
gtp-tunnel add gtp1 v1 100 200 1.1.1.1 2.2.2.2

Splat looks like:

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
