There's no need to allocate the compat vDSO and signal pages using
GFP_ATOMIC allocations, so use GFP_KERNEL instead.

Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will@kernel.org>
Nit: We could explain why GFP_KERNEL is sufficient in the commit message.
Usually it's the other way around, document why GFP_ATOMIC is needed ;).
