Subject: [PATCH] wcn36xx: allocate skbs with GFP_KERNEL during init
Git-commit: 5151a673da43fbaeb62fcbd20814a3cdd4dd3afd
Patch-mainline: v4.18-rc1
References: FATE#326906
GFP_ATOMIC should only be used when the allocation is done from atomic
context. Introduce a new flag to wcn36xx_dxe_fill_skb() and use GFP_KERNEL
when pre-allocating buffers during init.
This doesn't fix an issue that was observed in the wild, but it reduces
the chance of failed allocations under memory pressure.
